One is a high-speed Amtrak train that would travel 300 miles per hour and cut commute times to Manhattan or Washington, D.C., to about 30 minutes.

The SCMaglev's hypothetical phase 2 expects an 1 hour from NYC to DC, which would be ~ 30 mins from Philly to either of the two cities. I don't see how Amtrak can achieve a sustained 300 mph unless they go full maglev and build completely new grade separation
