Amtrak Raleigh New York City recent customer reviews

The amtrak train was over 3 hours late. I missed my connection and had to run to grand central to pick up the metro train to get in at 2am rather then just after 10pm. Considering the issues with hygiene and that the food aboard train was served to me moldy I will drive or fly next time I travel.
