As was said, weekend parking isn't an issue at WNL, and even if it fills up, passengers sometimes start to park in the grass next to the platform that is CTDOT property that fits probably another dozen cars. Be aware that the station is literally just a high-level platform and ticket machine. They were due to start construction on a new station at Main Street & Bridge Street about a mile up the road late last year but I guess that's been delayed.SubwayNut is correct, the connecting trains will always wait unless the incoming one is very very late. 98% of the time they are already waiting directly across the platform in NHV, but if the incoming train is early, they may still be moving the equipment from the small Amtrak yard next to the station building.Fares are dirt cheap at the moment; it's usually not that cheap NHV-NYP. The fares NHV-SPG are always the same due to the Hartford Line. I'm glad you grabbed a low one before they inevitably start raising them for the summer demand once most the population is vaccinated. But I agree, the overall process taking Amtrak rather than Metro-North from north of NHV is nice, but the price usually isn't worth it considering Amtrak isn't much faster.Have fun! Hope you enjoy the Hartford Line & check out the new train hall in NYC.
