If you book Amtrak far enough out you can get a round trip to NYC for less than $100.

Another note on Amtrak: if prices seem too high, keep looking daily for tickets. When people return their tickets via Amtrak, you can buy them at their original price. Multiple times throughout the day you may see tickets in the $30-70 range pop up that you can snag if you’re quick.

Yeah, Amtrak is a way more pleasant way of going to NYC. It's a shame that their last minute tickets are so pricey.

Last time I checked you couldn't book a train before late December that wasn't at least 70 something dollars one way.

Amtrak is my preferred way to travel, but unfortunately the day I'm looking at is $$$ even for coach. :(
