Just even a year or so ago the Amtrak site was super lousy, I'm talking bad but recently they've really cleaned it up. Not to mention that they are touting their new Acelo train, the high speed service, that will be travelling the east coast routes as up to 150 mph. They also have lots of specials for purchasing on line, for students, passes, seasonal etc. It looks like Amtrak is finally trying to catch up!!

I have taken the Acela train 8 times. Yes, it is new and nice, and they even have internet, but I have yet to see it get to 100mph. I have only been on the train when it reaches around 70mph (I could tell becasue we were right next to the interstate, but that speed only lasted for about 15 min. It takes these trains a long time to slow down and speed up. But, this IS the right direction.
