Good to know. We're taking the Acela express from NYC to DC on the 28th Dec......did you see any issues or have any tips for boarding with luggage?
Get on first and sit at the end of the carriage where your luggage will be in front of you and you will have extra leg room (it's actually quite good anyway).
At NYC you won't know the track the train is departing from until minutes before the train arrives. When the track is shown on the overhead board there is a mad rush to get downstairs. Have your ticket ready for checking and go like the clappers.
Grab your seats and stay in them until the train departs. Then enjoy the trip, it is a great ride (I've travelled south as far as PHL).
