NYC-Philly - options on transit?
Hi - can anyone offer any alternatives for transit from nyc to philly besides these options:
-- amtrak from nyp-philadelphia (1.5 hr about $100RT)
-- chinatown bus (2 hr $25RT)
-- greyhound bus
Are there any other train options that might be less expensive than the $100 on amtrak? Is there a NJT/Septa combo?
Thanks!

When are you traveling. If you are traveling not on a sunday afternoon I would recommend the greyhound option. $20 rt, if purchased online. The tickets can also be used for any bus, so you are not married to the bus time on your ticket.

I've taken this a dozen or more times and have never missed the connection in Trenton.
