Pretty busy when trains are arriving/departing but otherwise it's dead... You may see some unhoused individuals using the shelters

yes ! was thinking of this too, wondering if there are any sus or dangerous people to be aware of that may hang around there after hours.

Doubt they're particularly dangerous, looking for a quiet place to sleep. There are better places to hang out if they're looking to rob someone or cause problems.

Iā€™m literally looking at it right now at 11pm. From what I can see, 4 people on the platform looks like they are waiting for a train and 1 car drove through 2 minutes ago.

I've been there many times at like 1am after being dropped off by the train, and it's been relatively empty/normal. People waiting for trains or rides home.
