Amtrak Thruway

Common card · No. 301743

Amtrak Thruway is the former name of Amtrak's bus transportation services to connect passengers with areas not served by Amtrak trains. (Amtrak now refers to these services as Amtrak Connection.) In most cases these are motorcoach routes, but can also use other vehicles. Amtrak also sells interline tickets on non-dedicated intercity bus services, transit buses, vans, taxis, ferry boats and commuter rail trains, but these are not sold under the Amtrak Connection name. Train and connecting tickets are typically purchased together from Amtrak for the length of a passenger's journey and connections are timed for guaranteed transfers between the two services.
