Quite the ambitious route. You'll need a good weather day with lots of daylight and a one way ticket to New Haven. Potential bailouts at Brewster south on the Harlem Line.

Food and fluid stops on the map.

Manhattan to 30th Street Station, Philadelphia. This is a entirely different route than Newark to Philadelphia 98.

You will need to take either Amtrak or SEPTA/NJ Transit back to Penn Station in NYC.

Suggested food and water stops on the map.

Lots of climbing in this loop of hilly countryside.
