At a recent news conference in Philadelphia, Amtrak announced a 30-year vision for high-speed train travel on the east coast.
Even though the proposal is just at the “visionary” stage, according to the Associated Press, and no funding is in place, Amtrak President Joseph Boardman said that he is hopeful a high-speed rail could be in place by 2040.
Boardman continued by saying that the travel time on the perpetually congested route between DC and New York City could b reduced from 162 minutes to 96 minutes on the high-speed rail. The decrease in travel time between New York and Boston would be even more significant: from 215 minutes to 84 minutes.
We will dream about this possibility next time we are stuck in traffic on the BoltBus.
