AMTRAK OVERHAULS NORTHEAST SERVICE

Amtrak is overhauling its service in the Northeast corridor and renaming the Newport News to Boston route the Northeast/Direct. Amtrak has upgraded the interior of 70 passenger cars, including the replacement of seats, upholstery and carpeting to create a more contemporary look. The trains will include an on-board cleaning service. The changes do not effect the Metroliner commuter service between Washington and New York. (Bloomberg Business News) by CNB
