Amtrak began operating its new high-speed train fleet on Thursday along the Northeast Corridor linking Washington, New York and Boston, a $2.35 billion project that was delayed for years. The NextGen Acela trains can hit speeds of up to 160 miles per hour, have free WiFi, power outlets and reading lights. The roll-out was originally scheduled for 2021, but was held up by testing complications, infrastructure constraints and other disruptions related to the Covid-19 pandemic. (Source: Bloomberg)
