There are various train routes passing through these two cities, both high-speed routes like the Acela train, as well as standard mid or long distance journeys, such as the Vermonter, Crescent, Carolinian, Palmetto, Pennsylvanian, Keystone Service and North East Regional.

What train stations are used when travelling from Philadelphia to New York City?

The main departure station for the trains to New York City from Philadelphia is William H. Gray III 30th St. Station (PHL). However, there is another station in the city of Philadelphia only available on some of the train routes offered by Amtrak. The North Philadelphia Amtrak Station is another stop on both the Northeast Regional train and the Keystone Service.

There is a county train line, the Trenton Line, that runs between North Philadelphia Station and the William H. Gray III 30th St. Station. It includes just one stop and takes around 10min. The arrival station in New York City is Moynihan Hall at Penn Station (NYP) in the middle of Manhattan.

What luggage is allowed on Philadelphia to New York City trains?

The national railway company is generally the one to define the luggage allowance on the Philadelphia to New York City trains. In this case, all the Amtrak routes running the journey between these two cities allow at least two personal items along with two carry-on bags per passenger on board the trains. As for checked bags, the allowance depends not only on the type of train, but also on the services available at the departure and arrival stations. For trains from Philadelphia to New York City, neither the high-speed Acela train, nor the Keystone Service, Vermonter and Northeast Regional Amtrak lines allow checked bags. The rest of the Amtrak lines operating the trains to New York City from Philadelphia allow checked bags and offer these services at both the departure and arrival stations. In this case, passengers have up to two check items included with their train fare.

Are pets allowed on the train from Philadelphia to New York City?

Yes, pets are allowed on some of the Amtrak Philadelphia to New York City trains.

Pets are allowed only in Coach Class on the standard lines and in Business Class on the Acela high-speed train. The number of pets allowed on board is limited, so you should make a reservation as soon as possible to ensure a spot for your four-legged friend. The dogs and cats you travel with cannot weigh over 25 lbs, including the weight of the pet carrier they must travel in. Note that the pet carrier counts as one of the passenger’s carry-on items and an additional pet fee is required.
