Train Attendant
This might be a silly question, but that's what the internet's for, right? :blink:
I'm taking the Northeast Regional (Train 84) from Richmond VA to Philadelphia PA later in the month. I've recently taken the Northeast Regional to Boston and back, so I'm pretty familiar with it.
But, I opted to take the Silver Meteor (Train 97) back from Philly to RVA when my trip is over a few days after arrival. I could have chose either, really, but it seemed the Silver Meteor had less stops (am I right?) and I figured I'd try it since I hadn't before.
Is there any real difference? Or will I not know one train/route from another? Does anything cool happen on the Silver Meteor that doesn't happen on the Northeast Regional like free pizza, silver party hats, free R-rated movies?
Oh, I'll be in Reserved Coach, nothing fancy.
