Starting April 5, you can travel in your own private room on select Amtrak Northeast Regional trains operating overnight between Washington, D.C., New York, and Boston. Amtrak has enforced safety protocols like mandatory masks, limited capacity, and enhanced cleaning throughout the COVID-19 pandemic on all of its trains. But adding the option for travelers to reserve their own rooms on this popular route provides an extra layer of privacy not to mention a bed to stretch out in on a ride that can take up to 10 hours if you’re traveling from D.C. to Boston.
American Rescue Plan Restores Full Amtrak Long-Distance Services Written by William C. Vantuono, Editor-in-Chief
Close to $2 billion in funding for Amtrak is among the elements in President “Amtrak Joe” Biden’s $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan bill, approved by Congress on March 10, and which is expected to be signed into law by the 46th President shortly.
The $1.7 billion in Amtrak COVID-19 recovery funding will enable Amtrak to fully restore daily service on 12 long-distance routes, following pandemic-related schedule reductions in 2020. Amtrak said it “will sustain and restore operations and recall the more-than 1,200 furloughed employees through the remainder of FY21 and into FY22. All destinations and scheduled departure/arrival times served by the long-distance network will be maintained … providing customers significantly more departures for the upcoming summer travel season.”
