  • just wondering, what class were you in?

  • Business class, the lowest class on the Acela :P

  • How did you EVER get away with shooting video onboard? These day I'd be too afraid to try (unless it's a railfan special where it's expected)! Technically, photography cannot be considered an act of terrorism but try explaining that to the Amtrak security! Still-what's your secret? Last time I videoed on Amtrak was 1986-and that was on a railfan trip.

  • Keep the camera down low (as if you're just carrying it around, not filming) when you see someone. I had to do that in the cafe car here...

  • how much is a ticket in accela express ?

  • Depends how far you go

  • TRASH TRAINS.

  • not in first class? haha

  • Is Round Trip Cheaper than One Way on Amtrak? I'm just wondering because it looks that way on Amtrak.com

  • I still don't understand the importance of signing your ticket for Amtrak **shrugs**

  • @leonardwilson85 : Ahhh... you must not be from the area; everyone in NYC and surroundings know not to take Amtrak between Trenton and New Haven 'cause its cheaper to take commuter trains.

    Acela's TOTALLY worth it if your traveling far (like from NYC to DC)

  • We need the ACELA, running from charlotte to raliegh.

  • 4:00 plz sign your tickets stand on one leg, do three spins and the 4 handstands to continue=govt

  • It looks awesome! I think it better than flying!

    -Plenty of legroom

    -Chargers for phone!

    -Can sleep comfortable without limit space

    -Anytime eating

    -Wide Aisle

  • @leonardwilson85 I took Acela a week ago from New Haven to Penn Station. I was not impressed. It wasn't really faster than Metro-North. It wasn't worth the money I paid.

  • Cool, the inside of that train is set up quite similar to one of those fancy new jet aeroplanes I keep hearing about.
