Bob,
We used to do the Amtrak trek back in the 70's and 80's all the time into Grand Central with about 20 guys walking to Penn Station with stops at McAnn's, McCoy's and a couple of other hot spots along the way!
I remember 80,000 plus crowds for Affirmed, Bid, Pleasant Colony and being jammed in like sardines on LIRR coming back to Penn Station. I was a lot younger and much more tolerant back then, no thanks on the train although if not treated like cattle it is without a doubt the way to go.
Good luck,
Frank D.
