On Saturday penn station njt was packed , i mean it was miraculous a riot didnt break out. Why doesnt NJT make it so people can hop on the train eariler like 20m ? This would reduce people sitting on stairs,and the near mayhem conditions ? Instead everyone crowded on to 1 NEC trenton train, then 15 min later another one was announced. If they annouced the boarding times around the same time, people could have had 2 train to go on, thus making things orderly. I would rather sit on the train , rather then deal with an unruly crowd in the waiting area.

Also, trains might not have been announced at the same time because they were'nt in the station at the same time. Some turn off the road, some come from the yard and the tracks are not decided until right before entering the station.
