Amtrak will introduce a second and third high-speed Acela Express train in the Northeast corridor March 5, with one making a nonstop trip between New York and Washington each weekday in two hours, 28 minutes.

The second train entering service that day will make daily round trips, with stops, between Boston and New York.
