The Acela ties into my last NYC trip when I actually was coming home to Boston during that last snowstorm..

I was coming from DC, we circled Boston twice, tried to land then was rerouted to LaGuardia..

Not a hotel room in the city.. Me and another guy took the cab to Penn station to catch a 3am acela... that we couldnt get on because we showed up at 11:03 and Amtrak closed at 11.

So we waited for the 6am.. (there was some adventure in the middle of finding my boss who just happened to be in NYC etc...) I got back to Penn at 5am... the 6AM acela was canceled.

There was a normal commuter rail type at 6:45 that was on so I took it... 6 excruciating hours later... I was back in Boston.. got a car home.. got to the house... It was like 20F out.. reached for my keys and realized they were on the shelf 2 feet away from me on the inside of the house..

I was not happy that day.
