First Look: Amtrak’s BRAND NEW Acela – FASTEST Train in America!

Today, we’re riding the first-ever NextGen Acela on its inaugural journey from Boston to Washington, D.C. This is America’s fastest train, capable of reaching 160 mph on the Northeast Corridor. After years of delays and billions in investment, the Avelia Liberty trainsets are finally here—bringing a new era of comfort, technology, and speed to U.S. rail travel.

If you’re a fan of high-speed rail, Amtrak, or just love amazing train journeys, you won’t want to miss this ride!

Huge THANK YOU to Amtrak for inviting me on the press trip!
