TRAINS

Nice News - In the U.S., Amtrak is practically synonymous with long-distance trains, the way Kleenex is with tissues and Tupperware with food storage containers. There’s good reason for Amtrak’s popularity: Not only is it the country’s sole high-speed rail operator, but it deploys over 300 trains every day in 46 states.  But now it’s expanding its services even further — and enhancing rider experience, reducing greenhouse gas emissions, and generating jobs in the process. The company is debuting NextGen Acela in the spring of 2025: a fleet of 28 high-speed electric trains coming to the Northeast Corridor tracks, the busiest in the nation.
