<p>The train from Penn Station in NYC to Boston South is $66.</p>
<p>As someone who uses Amtrak to commute to NYC (I ride the Metroliner, but the Regional train is also very nice and half the fare of the Metroliner) on a weekly basis, I strongly recommend the train over a bus. On a train, you’ll have a dining car (with tables), large bathrooms, fold down trays at your seat for laptop use/games, eating/drinking, access to power via the outlet at your seat, etc.</p>
<p>When/if selecting a Regional train, note the time it will take to get to your destination. Not all Regional trains have the same travel time. I’ve noticed that some NYP (New York) to BOS (Boston South) trains have a difference in travel duration by as much as an hour…4 hrs on the short end…5hrs on the long.</p>
