Traveling with Acela
Acela trains travel up to 150 MPH, but generally average out at 70 MPH! Still not as fast as the proposed bullet train to connect Manhattan and Boston, but fast enough to shave about 30 to 60 minutes off of your commute. Plus, with reserved seating there is no frantic rush to the train.
