The waiting area of the Atlantic City Rail Terminal

The Atlantic City Rail Terminal is Atlantic City, New Jersey's train station, located inside of the Atlantic City Convention Center.[1] It has five tracks served by three platforms and functions as the easternmost terminus of the NJ Transit Atlantic City Line to and from Philadelphia. The station was also served by the Atlantic City Express Service (ACES) from 2009 until it was formally discontinued on March 9, 2012.[2]

The terminal was designed by TAT/SSVK, Architects and dedicated on May 22, 1989.[3] Atlantic City was once served by the old Pennsylvania-Reading Seashore Lines Atlantic City station (originally Atlantic City Union Station), which had become Atlantic City Municipal Bus Terminal, demolished in 1997.[4] Between 1965 and 1981 a single-story, two-track station on the present site served PRSL trains until service ended in 1981.
