Vacationers can kick off the brand new 12 months exploring New England by practice — for much less cash — with Amtrak’s $20 round-trip fare sale.

Amtrak is celebrating 21 years of service on the Amtrak Downeaster, a 146-mile regional passenger practice service that providers 12 stations between Boston and Brunswick, Maine, by providing $20 round-trip fares. The sale, which started Thursday, is legitimate for journey Jan. 1 by way of Jan. 31, 2023.

Greater than 8.4 million riders have traveled on the Downeaster since service started on Dec. 15, 2001, in response to Amtrak. Up to now 12 months, the Downeaster has served greater than 467,000 passengers, a 35% improve over the earlier 12 months, the corporate reported.

“If you happen to already love the Downeaster, or when you’ve haven’t ridden but, these $20 Spherical-Journey fares make January the proper time to take the practice,” Taylor Belanger, advertising and marketing director for the Northern New England Passenger Rail Authority (NNEPRA), stated in an announcement.
