Unless you can get some kind of banging deal on Amtrak – you're going to be spending at least $75/day in gas & tolls
That's upwards of $19,000 just in gas & tolls per year
That's your entire ”raise” – and you haven't counted time yet (a minimum of 6 hours a day)
If you can get a deal on Amtrak AND you can somehow get benefit while on the train (work, etc) – maybe it’s worth it
But as it stands, $26k per year – slightly over $2k per month – is going to be more than gone trying to ”commute” to NY from Albany
