Abstract

The article reports that North East Code (NEC) is Amtrak's leading corridor, with its fastest service Acela. It notes that the premium-fare Acela service operates at speeds running up to 125 miles per hour on the southern section between Washington, DC, and New York City. Amtrak has reportedly expressed its reservations against the possibility of major expansion of intercity service on the NEC without increasing capacity into and through Manhattan.
