Amtrak on Christmas Day - Trains Magazine

Maybe Not !

I checked the Time Table for Amtrak's "Northest Corridor", service from Boston to New York and Washington.  Best running time 6 1/2 hours.  Serving the states of Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Maryland, and Washington DC.

  "Weekdays", first departure Southbound from Boston 5:10 AM --- last departure 9:45 PM  / Northbound first departure from Washington 3:15 AM --- last departure 8:25 PM.

 18 trains each way each day  --- 9 of the 18 are "Acela" Bullet Trains

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Saturday & Sundays",  only 13 trains each way each weekend day  ---- 5 are "Acela" bullet trains

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Christmas this year, a Friday, Amtrak ran on a "Saturday & Sunday" schedule

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

All "Northeast Corridor" trains are "All Reserved"  --- "Acela" are "First Class" and "Business Class" (2nd class) only  ---- "Northeast Regional" are "Business Class" and "Coach Class" (3rd class) only.
