Train service to AC from NYC coming
Today, NY Transit approved a 3-year trial of direct train service from NYC Penn Station to AC. (Previously, you had to go through Philly.) It will be called "Atlantic City Express Service" and will run Friday through Sunday, beginning in late 2007. AC casino operators will subsidize the operation so no additional costs are placed on NJ Transit. The plan is an effort to attract a more desirable demographic (than bus patrons), and to bypass the Philly slot parlors.
