I can't help but be skeptical when it costs from 3-7 times more than the bus and is only 20-30 minutes shorter of a trip. Of course, it's far more comfortable, but for a 3-5 hr trip, the trade-off is well worth it.
- jonknee 14y agoNo traffic delays. Important to consider if you're in town for a meeting.
- rayiner 14y agoIf you book in advance, the Northeast Regional is $50 each way from NYC to DC, versus about $30 for the Washington Deluxe bus. And a far more comfortable trip that's less likely to get stuck in traffic.
- notJim 14y agoOh, I honestly didn't know the train was that cheap when you book in advance. I've only ever booked the week of. Still, it's like an hour longer of a trip than the bus. (I guess I haven't had bad experiences with traffic--on my last trip to Boston, we arrived early.)
