   Acelas run between NYP-WAS in 3 hours, regular trains in 3:30.  Where   
   does 10 hours of travel come from?   
      
   You can leave Penn station at 7 AM, get to Union Station at 10 AM, do   
   six hours of business, get the 5:50 PM return train back and be back   
   at Penn Station at 8:50 PM.  It's a longish day but entirely doable,   
   and better than staying overnight.
