STL to CHI is 284 miles in 5 hours. Philly to Boston is 300 miles in 5 hours. I guess it's impressive the Acela can still surpass a train running through farm fields.

Per Amtrak,
https://amtrakjournal.com/2022/02/08...a-express-faq/
Common trip times:
New York City/Penn Station to Boston/South Station: 3 hours and 42 minutes
New York City/Penn Station to Washington, DC: 2 hours and 55 minutes
Boston/South Station to Washington, DC: 6 hours and 46 minutes
Where did you get that 5 hours data point from? You are off by over an hour.
