The ''Atlantic City Express'' was an Amtrak train that ran from both New York City and Washington, D.C. to Atlantic City, New Jersey, in the Northeastern United States. The train operated on the Northeast Corridor from New York City and Washington, D.C. to 30th Street Station in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where it went east to Atlantic City. The train made several local stops at Amtrak stations along the route. The train started service in May 1989, after Amtrak spent extra Northeast Corridor improvement funds to rehabilitate the Atlantic City Line from Philadelphia to Atlantic City. The train was designed to provide service to gamblers and vacationers. Amtrak also operated some through services from Atlantic City to Richmond, Virginia and Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. All Amtrak service to Atlantic City was discontinued on April 1, 1995. The following day New Jersey Transit started operating local trains between Philadelphia and Atlantic City.〔 When Amtrak ran the express service, New Jersey Transit trains ran only between Atlantic City and Lindenwold. ==ACES== A variant of the former Amtrak service, ''Atlantic City Express Service'', began a weekend express train from Pennsylvania Station to Atlantic City on February 6, 2009. The service was sponsored by several casinos and was run by New Jersey Transit over the Northeast Corridor and the Atlantic City Lines, with a stop in Newark. The last train ran in September 2011, with the train formally discontinued in 2012. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Atlantic City Express (Amtrak train)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
