by ridership and service frequency. The Acela, which entered service in 2000 and is the only
service in the United States, operates at up to 150 mph (241 km/h) on part of the route, taking 2 hours 48 minutes between New York and Washington; for much of the route, however, speed is limited to under 100 mph (161 km/h). Plans have been prepared for a $117-billion (2010 dollars) project to reduce New York–Washington time to 96 minutes and Boston–New York to 84 minutes.
With primarily passenger services, the Northeast Corridor is a cooperative venture between Amtrak and various state agencies. Amtrak owns the track between Washington and
. The segment from New Rochelle to New Haven is owned by the states of New York and Connecticut;
commuter trains operate on this segment. North of New Haven, ownership again reverts to Amtrak, whose tracks stretch to the border between Rhode Island and Massachusetts. The final segment from the border north to Boston is owned by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
Under Amtrak's ownership, the Northeast Corridor suffered from several high-profile electric-power failures in 2006 and other infrastructure problems. Intermittent power outages caused delays of up to five hours for Amtrak and commuter trains. Railroad officials have blamed Amtrak's funding woes for the deterioration of the track and power supply infrastructure, which in places is almost a hundred years old.

The current Northeast Corridor was built by a number of different companies between 1830s and 1917. The route was later owned by two companies: the
(NYNH&H) owned the section from Boston to New York (formerly known as the "Boston & New Haven Main Line" or "Shore Line"), and the
(PRR) owned the section from New York to Washington (formerly known as the "Philadelphia-to-Washington Main Line").
A short section in New York was owned jointly by the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad and the Pennsylvania Railroad:

In 1905 Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) announced that it would electrify its suburban lines at Philadelphia; eventually the 11-kV 25-Hz AC catenary was extended all the way between New York and Washington. Electric service began September 11, 1915 with

Through trains to Washington began running under electricity to Wilmington February 12, with the engine change moved from Manhattan Transfer to Wilmington. The same was done on April 9 for trains running west from Philadelphia, with the change point moved to Paoli.

The tunnels at Baltimore were rebuilt, and electric revenue service between New York and Washington began February 10, 1935. On April 7 the electrification of all New York–Washington passenger trains was complete, with 639 daily trains, 191 locomotive-hauled and the other 448 multiple-unit. New York–Washington electric freight service began May 20 with the electrification of freight lines in New Jersey and Washington. Extensions to

Conrail, another government corporation, was formed in 1976 to take over the now-bankrupt Penn Central Transportation, and sections of the line that had not already been sold to state commuter transportation authorities were sold to Amtrak. The purchase of the Northeast Corridor by Amtrak was controversial at the time, and the
blocked the transaction and withheld purchase funds for several months until Amtrak granted it control over reconstruction of the corridor.
The Preliminary System Plan for Conrail, prepared in February 1975, proposed abandoning all freight on the Shore Line (NEC) between

and new Centralized Electrification and Traffic Control (CETC) control centers by
at Philadelphia, New York and Boston. It allowed more trains to run faster and closer together, and set the stage for later
operation. NECIP also introduced the AEM-7 locomotive, which enabled lower travel times between cities, and it became the most successful engine on the Corridor. The NECIP set travel time goals of 2 hours and 30 minutes between Washington and New York, and 3 hours between Boston and New York. These goals were not met because of the low level of funding provided by the Reagan Administration and Congress in the 1980s.
A project for electrification between New Haven and Boston had been included in a bill signed by President
All grade crossings on the line have been eliminated between New York and Washington since the mid-1980s. Eleven grade crossings remain in Connecticut.
The Northeast High Speed Rail Improvement Program (NHRIP), was implemented in the 1990s. In preparation for the new higher-speed
trains, Amtrak upgraded the portion of the Northeast Corridor north of New York;
were eliminated, some bridges were rebuilt, and some curves were modified. Beginning in 1996, the electrification was extended north along the 157-mile (253 km) section of track between New Haven and Boston with electric locomotives starting service on January 31, 2000. Concrete

"A vision for High-Speed Rail on the Northeast corridor" is an aspirational proposal for new dedicated high-speed tracks between Washington, DC, and Boston, Massachusetts produced by
in October 2010. At a cost of approximately $117 billion (2010 dollars), it would allow speeds of 220 mph and reduce the travel time from New York to Washington, including a stop in Philadelphia, to 96 minutes, and the travel time from Boston to New York to 84 minutes.

Amtrak accounts for about 14% of all intercity trips between Northeast Corridor cities and its branches. The rest of these intercity trips are taken by airline, automobile, or coach.
In addition to Amtrak, several commuter rail agencies operate passenger service using the Northeast Corridor tracks.
