And for a light lunch or dinner, you can pick between two new vegan options: an Asian inspired noodle bowl or corn tamale.

If you prefer a heavier meal, there's always the smoked turkey and havarti sandwich or a cheese stromboli.

And luckily for travelers' wallets, unlike most restaurants, cafes, or grocery stores, Amtrak's menu prices aren't increasing.

Amtrak

Instead, meals will now be cheaper. The cost for a sandwich and salad on Amtrak's Acela and Northeast Regional trains will be slashed between $0.50 to $1.50.

For most other food items, the price will remain the same.
