Greyhound

Pros: Convenience of using New Carrolton station, price of ticket. Cons: Increased leg room, earlier departure options, more direct route options (less stops), more electrical outlets by the passenger seats. For the existing travel schedule, timely arrival in NYC is very helpful/important and the driver can help with this by limiting time spent at stops en route. Tips: Enjoy your trip!
