Surely you jest. No train needs cafe service for a 55 min run. That is how long a typical Amtrak train spends in NJ. NJ used to subsidize a class of trains called Clockers between NYP and PHL, which they finally took over completely and truncated to Trenton since PA was not interested in funding their continuation to Philly. That is where things stand at present. Meanwhile Amtrak extends a number of Keystones to New York which make exactly two stops in NJ in general. There are a few exceptions which stop at a few more places.I also think that if PA subsidizes a cafe car, New Jersey should subsidize the cafe car on this train as well.
