History
Until somewhat recently, both stations in Garfield were relatively bare bones in structure. However, in 2011, Plauderville, the other station in Garfield, received a major upgrade by means of new high level handicap-accessible platforms.[6] Coupled with its much greater amount of parking in comparison to Garfield Station, it receives higher ridership.[6]

Station layout

The station has two tracks, each with a low-level side platform.
Parking is also very limited, as there are only bicycle racks on the Hoboken-bound platform and no street automobile parking. Pedestrian access is available via two staircases on Passaic Street, and at grade level on Somerset Street which runs near the end of the platforms.
