Reply to comment by Bablyon in AMTRAK from BOS to NY by unicynn
I remember one delay because a truck was Storrowed on one of the railroad bridges in Connecticut. They needed to get a quick inspection and to go slowly over the bridge. Other delays are caused by breakdowns by other trains, since it shares with commuter rail both in Boston and I think in Connecticut. And there used to be a change of engines in New Haven.

Yes, the change in New Haven used to be because Northeast of there was not electrified yet.

It's all elelctric from NYC to Boston, so no more engine changes at New Haven.

It shares tracks with commuter trains for basically its whole route. There’s MBTA, CTRail, Metro-North, NJ Transit, SEPTA, MARC, and VRE.
