Metro-North updates train schedules out of New Haven

Run time is now down to 90 minutes for most trains. Major factors of this change was making improvements, such as modernizing and fine-tuning signals. With these updates, MTA leaders say that Metro-North is now faster and cheaper than the Acela coming into Grand Central from New Haven.

Maybe the thing I liked best about living and working in New Haven in 1971–73 was the frequent train service on the NEC. It seems it’s even better today, where trains are like trolley cars–there’ll be another one along in only a few minutes. Cheers to MetroNorth and Amtrak!
