I also have some Upgrade Coupons I am trying to use up, however the Vermonter has fewer BC seats in what I assume to be a split BC/Food service car? I have done Business on the Regional before but not on the Vermonter. Lastly, has anyone navigated the new Train Hall and is it easy to find your way around? I have a tight scheduled connection of about 15 minutes if my connecting service is on time and the Vermonter departure time. I'd rather not wait around for an extra hour for the Regional (though I hear the new Club Acela is very nice), but also don't want to miss the Vermonter if that is an unrealistic connection time. Worst case I figure rebook on the Regional if I am running late. Thanks for your insights.
Moynihan Hall is super easy to navigate -- it's a very large, open space with excellent signage. If your train is on-time, you'll have no problem.
