Over the next month, we will be traveling from New York to Washington DC. This is Amtrak's busiest railway corridor, but it is also served by different state-run commuter rail systems. We will be riding commuter rail from New York to Philadelphia and from Baltimore to DC.
In this first instalment, we will be hopping aboard a New Jersey Transit train on the Northeast Corridor Line (named after, well, the Northeast Corridor) and riding it in its entirety from New York Penn Station down to Trenton, NJ. Our train is a Bombardier Multi-Level, and it skips all stops between Newark Airport and New Brunswick. Is this train worth the price of a ticket? Find out!
