Reply to comment by DonQOnIce in Pro-tip - currently there are easily found amtrak one way fares to DC and NYC from 30th Street for $10 in April and May by RoughRhinos

> I was looking to be in NYC before 3 pm on a Saturday and leave around 11am to 2 pm on the following Monday and there was nothing reasonable. Maybe a Saturday-Monday is harder to find than Friday to Sunday?

I checked second weekend in April for those days/times (since we are talking about ordering in advance), to-from are about $38 on average each.

Closer to the date could be $50+, and you might not be that flexible on time.
