So I'm going to NC for Thanksgiving and I have a flight from Philly (the girl lives there) so I'm taking Amtrak's "Keystone" to Philadelphia. I have taken Amtrak before to DC and Philly, and I enjoyed it. It's a lot better than the NJ Transit/Septa trek whick can take 2.5 hours.
Anyways I was looking at Amtrak's schedules and routes and I was wondering how many people still rode the trains long distance. If anyone has any personal experiences or trip reports riding Amtrak I would love to hear them.
Also for any train buffs out there, are Amtrak's trains that leave NY Penn Station due south operated by diesel locomotives or are they electric?
