Trenton Rail Station is the main passenger train station in Trenton, New Jersey. It is the southernmost stop in New Jersey on the Northeast Corridor. It serves as the terminus for New Jersey Transit trains to and from New York City and SEPTA R7 Regional Rail Line trains to and from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and as an intermediate station for Amtrak trains traveling between the two cities along the Northeast Corridor.

There is bus service connecting to Trenton Station, and the River Line light rail, which offers service to Camden, is across the street.

Trenton Station has one level with ticket offices, ticket machines, stores, and a Greyhound Bus kiosk. From that level, there are steps leading down to the two train island platforms.

A $56.6 million renovation is currently underway, which will include an addition of a mezzanine level providing additional office and retail space. New lighting, air-conditioning, information displays, escalators, and elevators will also be installed. Construction is anticipated to last two years.
