Skip the Stress of Planning a Trip to New York and Simplify Your Ride with Amtrak Train Travel

Every year millions of people plan trips to New York City. This iconic location is filled with history, landmarks and cultural experiences. Some people want to visit Chinatown or Little Italy. Others want to see the Statue of Liberty or Central Park. For sports fan there is Madison Square Garden and Yankees Stadium. And what visit is complete without a trip to Times Square?

If you're planning a trip to New York, you've probably thought about seeing all these places and maybe adding in a trip to Broadway, Wall Street or the 9/11 Memorial as well. And while you're excited about the trip, you're less excited about how you're going to get there. The first choice is to head into the city by car, but you'll likely have to pay tolls, sit in traffic jams and spend time finding a place to park.

But you don't have to let driving concerns stop you from heading to the Big Apple. Instead of traveling into the city by car, why not take the train?

Amtrak offers 14 different routes that include a stop at New York's famous Penn Station. You'll see this iconic location and even be able to access Madison Square Garden without ever stepping foot outside. You're just steps away from accessing the subway system or Manhattan's downtown streets, all without having to find a parking spot.
