Heads up for those "of a certain age" booking Business Class on Amtrak. Check pricing the trip with and without the senior discount. For example, BC is $90 PHL-RNK when priced as regular adult, but jumps to $137 if the senior discount is added. I think it has to do with the base being a Saver Fare (which is not discountable), but Business Class is 100% refundable regardless, so the extra $47 buys nothing.

I put together a timetable for Regionals 147 and 156 for 7/10 and 7/11 (should be the same for the other weekends). Times are from Amtrak.com.

10/11 is now best for me (after searching fares on the Silvers).

I have moved all previous discussion of the BRRE trip from the general topic to a separate thread under the Fest itself to make things easier to find.
