The Hamilton station received national media attention in 2019, when it was reported that commuters are regularly locked out of the station building in the early mornings. The building, which houses a ticket office, waiting room, andDunkin' Donuts shop, is to open at 4:30 a.m. every day with the opening of the donut shop; a Dunkin' Donuts employee is contracted to open the doors of the building at that time. The ticket office opens later each day, at 6 a.m.,[6] and the platforms and a small enclosed waiting area are always kept open.[7][8]
