Got upgraded to business class on Northeast Regional... I bid $66 and won LMAO

Wonder how it is compared with Acela

Actually not much different... It only takes 45 mins longer than Acela from NYC to Boston 😄 much better deal. But these trains desperately need some update it's ancient!

@corgidad I don't think I've ever been on the Acela. tbh the difference between just coach and business on the NE regional is so negligible to me 😂 it's only really worth it if I'm boarding at a busy stop and don't want to be fighting for a seat/luggage space

@germ

I thought business class might be quieter! I definitely appreciate that Acela has a quiet car.

I was trying to get the Acela II from Boston to NYC but they cancelled that train and put me on an old Acela 😭

@corgidad oh hmm 🤔 maybe i was on an Acela recently lol. my last trip had me in business class on my connection and it was kinda annoying because the car was ALL THE WAY AT THE BACK and they only pulled up the front couple cars at the platform. i was hiking so long through that train i thought i'd get to my stop before i found my seat 😂 anyway yeah it had a fancy quiet car I had to plow through so maybe that was Acela after all.
