Choose Your Mode of Transport Wisely**:

Train**: The Amtrak service is a comfortable choice, typically taking about 1.5 hours. Book tickets in advance on the Amtrak website or app for better rates.

Bus**: Greyhound and Peter Pan offer budget-friendly travel options, with journey times around 2 hours. Check schedules ahead of time for the best departure times.

Car**: If you prefer driving, the distance is approximately 90 miles via I-84 E and I-95 N. Consider traffic conditions and plan to leave early to avoid peak travel times.

Booking and Timing**:

For trains and buses, book at least a few days in advance, especially during weekends or holidays when demand is higher. Check for discounts or promotions.

If driving, plan your trip during off-peak hours. Early mornings or late evenings are often less congested.

Luggage Considerations**:

On trains, you can bring larger luggage (up to 2 bags) without extra charges. For buses, check the specific luggage policies, as they may vary by carrier.

Regardless of transport, keep essentials like snacks, water, and personal items in a small bag that will remain with you.
