Why do you have to drag Acela into this?! It’s a wonderful service! Why the fuck do Americans have to turn European levels of comfort, ease, and efficiency into an insult?! It’s cheaper than flying, ffs.
I’ve had relatives that ride it every day (their companies paid for it). I’m sure it works well. Honestly, I wish we had high speed rail all over the United States. It’s rather embarrassing how far behind we are on mass transit.
However, the way it is perceived, people traveling up and down “the Acela corridor” skew toward the upper class. So has the same color as those “Lexus lanes”.
