iirc this method was about $30 one way, which is still a pretty nice
bargain compared to amtrack.  plus, you can probably get some kind of
frequent traveller pass to lower the costs a bit more.

now if you're *really* lookin to save some cash, you can take the
chinatown busses (the leave from near market/east and go to canal st. in
nyc).  i believe with them it's $10-12 one way, and was my preferred
mode of transport back in the student days.
