Hardest hit will be the approximately 18,000 Northeast Corridor commuters who have monthly passes, whose fares will increase an average of 50 percent. The cost of monthly passes vary. A monthly pass to ride Amtrak between Trenton, N.J., and New York City currently costs $522.
Same pass on NJ Transit? $320.00
Why is Amtrak so expensive? Even with a $1.2 billion subsidy!
