Amtrak Northeast Regional

Pros: The train arrived early and allowed fir 20 minutes of loading so people were not crammed together getting on. Plugs for phone chargers were available at each seat. Cons: Vegan options in the snack bar. The did have hummus and veggies but everything else had cheese on or in it. The bathroom smelled horrible! Tips: Bring snacks. Check your bags if you are going far.

Some of Baltimore's most impressive attractions are centered in and around Inner Harbor. This scenic waterfront is filled with historic ships, dating as far back as the Civil War in the case of the USS Constellation. Alongside shops and restaurants, Inner Harbor also hosts the National Aquarium, the Maryland Science Center, and several entertainment venues where you can catch live music. Enjoy a bird's-eye view of the harbor from atop Federal Hill Park, or if you prefer the view that inspired "The Star Spangled Banner," head out to Fort McHenry, known for its role in the War of 1812.
