one time on the 8:55am Amtrak to work i saw a dude pull out a martini glass and paper cocktail umbrella from his backpack and pour some drink into it from his hydroflask. i think about this often, i hope he's having a good day

With the new structure, customers traveling from Philadelphia to New York can buy tickets starting at $19 if they choose the low-cost Value option or $21 if they want more flexibility. Previously a flexible ticket for the same trip would cost at least $128.A ticket to Boston from Philadelphia in coach could cost customers as low as $35 with thenew flexible option, whereas it used to cost $223.

FUCK YEAH TRAINS

I'm sorry but I'm dying at this being framed like it's horrible:

More trains are good! Less emissions, less traffic, more mobility for everyone (disabled folks benefit highly from accessible public transport, for one group of many)...

Anyway, here's the actual feasibility study from Amtrak, the MTA, and New Jersey Transit on increasing capacity at New York Penn Station. I can think of something else that should be done but it's over 60 years too late to do it,* so this is the next best thing.

*I will never be over what happened to the original Penn Station. It's a huge chip on my shoulder and the fastest way to get me violently angry.

If you have the opportunity to take a 5-year-old on the train, I recommend you seize it. The staff love kids! Even in the quiet car!
