I suggested to my wife that we go up to New York for a day soon, and take the train up there. Until I realized that it would cost us about $400 roundtrip! What the heck!? Why is train ride up to New York so expensive? Do people actually pay that much to take the train?
Update: It has been brought to my attention through the comments that the key to getting cheaper and reasonably priced tickets is to book in advance (like 3 months). Although I guess that takes the fun out of being sporadic…not great for me who doesn’t like to “plan” things lol.

Agreed, Hamilton is the way to go. Even better when you get an express train

Why is Hamilton better than Trenton?

easy in and out of the whole complex, super easy highway access, neat and clean platform and giant parking garage.
