how do i get to new york from philadelphia by public transportation?

Amtrak is way too expensive. There is two ways much cheaper. You can take the bus from Chinatown that leaves hourly. The cost is $20.00 round trip and leaves you off at 11th and Arch in Philly. Or you can go to Penn Station and take NJ Transit to Trenton (Cost $18.50 round trip), from Trenton you take the R7 Septa (South Eastern Pennsylvania Transit Authority) to Philly which leaves you at Market Street East Station, Suburban Station or 30th Street Station (Cost $14.00 round trip) You will save money either way over Amtrak.
