What is the best way to commute to Brooklyn?

How do I go from Brooklyn to Washington DC via train or Greyhound?

  • I'm looking for info on how to catch a train or bus from Brooklyn to Washington DC. I'm aware it's about a 4 hour commute. What's the best way? And how/where can I catch it?

  • Answer:

    If you decide to go by train, you would start by taking the subway from Brooklyn into Manhattan, getting off at the Penn Station stop at 34th Street. At Penn Station you'd get on an Amtrak train heading to Washington, DC. There are two major types of trains: the extra-cost Acela service, which is aimed at expense-account travelers, and the more moderately-priced Regional service trains. There are trains throughout the day. If you want to go by Greyhound bus, you would take the subway from Brooklyn to the Port Authority Bus Terminal in Manhattan (at about West 40th Street), where you can catch a bus to Washington, DC. Here's a link to Amtrak's website: http://www.amtrak.com

Go to the Brooklyn, NY Greyhound station. The address is: BROOKLYN GREYHOUND STA 288 LIVINGSTON ST Brooklyn, NY 11217 and catch the bus going to Washington, DC. you're probably gonna have to transfer in Manhattan for the DC bus. and the trip by bus will take a minimum of 6 hours each way. the trip will cost about $89 per person.

Train is more comfy. Take Acela. If you decide to do the cheap route ($20+ one way) take the Chinatown express from Chinatown NY to Chinatown DC or the Peter Pan Bus for a few bucks more.
