I went online to book a trip to New York later next month, and, aside from the fact that I couldn't book the $49 2-week advance purchase fare, even though it was quoted on the original et of choices that came up, it seems that the trip is taking a bit longer.
I seem to recall that the travel time between BAL and NYP on the Regional was about 2:20 and that of the Acela Express was about 2:10. All of the choices I had for this Sunday ride were 2:43 for the Regional and 2:20 for the Acela Express. There were even some Regionals that were taking 3 hours for the ride.
What's happening? Are they doing track work? Or are the Sunday trains making more stops? I ;like riding the train but one of the charms of the NEC service is that I can get up to New York in less than 2 and a half hours.
