New York City (Vax Before Travel)Amtrak recently announced its newest train service, the Berkshire Flyer, which will soon pass between Moynihan Train Hall and Pittsfield, MA, with several scenic stops along the way. The Berkshire Flyer will make it easy for the public to take advantage of opportunities to visit museums, attend concerts, visit unique shops, and enjoy outdoor recreation. The Berkshire Flyer will launch in early July and operate on weekends through the summer of 2022. The train will make all the intermediate station stops as the typical Amtrak Empire Service train does on Fridays, including Yonkers, NY, Croton-Harmon, NY, Poughkeepsie, NY, Rhinecliff, NY, Hudson, NY, and Albany-Rensselaer Station. The Berkshire Flyer pilot’s success will be evaluated further to understand the feasibility and demand of the service.
