ACES train makes NYC to Atlantic City less of a gamble {Gadling}

Jun 30th 2009 5:20PM Thanks for the review of this viable and popular NYC getaway. It certainly sounds like the ACES train gets you to A.C. much more comfortably than the Greyhound bus in what seems like about the same amount of time. I'm definitely going to try it if they keep their $29 sale fare going this Summer. However, I would say the one difference that you didn't touch on is the casino credit. Do you get a gaming credit when you arrive at one of the ACES partner hotels? Last time I took Greyhound (Fall 2008 I think), to offset part of the $30 (possibly $33) fare, we got $20 cash from the Taj Mahal after signing up for a player card. I think I got a rash from the dirty greyhound seats as well, but that's another story.
