If you';re going on business, the best way is to take one of my luxury town car limos In New York and hire him for the day. That way you have transportation all day and a professional assistant with you at all times.

Russel,

How much would a limo ride cost from nyc to philly?

I have a feeling a train would be cheaper.

A train would be cheaper, but do you really want to be stuck on a train instead of a beautiful car, with a beautiful driver taking a beautiful ride to the city?

i think the amtrack trains are actually really nice and confortable ... amtrack is not like the nyc subway or nj transit either ... those trains are REALLY FAST!
