Creator's Key Takeaways
I kicked things off inside New York's Moahan Train Hall and even got into the Metro Lounge while riding in coach thanks to a little known perk.
The trip cost me 86 bucks. Leaves at 9:09. Let's get a souvenir.
I highly recommend getting snacks or eat something before you go. Bring something to drink because I don't believe there's a cafe car on board.
The lounge is the best in the system. The Chicago lounge is me. It's all right. I mean, at least it's a lounge. But this New York lounge sets the tone.
