It will allow you to maximize your time in the city, at least in the early hours of the day. I speak from the experience of getting in the city hours later than I was supposed to 'cause Bonanza just took so long.

That's a good idea, and the Acela is actually very nice. The sooner you get to Manhattan, the sooner you can get the Empire State Building (ESB) out of the way. The earlier you get to the ESB, the shorter the lines.
