Correct these numbers would be on 1235 NYP to PIT. With a deadhead back to Albany. No tickets purchased for return trip, not even sure if you could.

Wasn't aware that wasn't an option, thanks for the clarification... so those 22 passengers are supposed to cover both ends of a 9 hour round trip at $78 a piece? woof.

I did search ahead and notice that business class was "sold out" for next Friday. No idea if that is an option not actually being offered, or just a very limited amount of seats.

Last I looked, at least on Sunday you could "deadhead" to Springfield with a purchased ticket. I've been contemplating it in order to a bike ride in one direction from Springfield.

If business class is sold out next Friday its likely sold out from Penn. Croton at the latest. The turns for the equipment:
Friday 1235 NYP-ALB-PIT deadhead to Albany.
Sunday 1233 NYP-ALB-PIT
1246 PIT-ALB-NYP
The Sunday turns are new this season, in previous seasons it would start out of Sunday.
