Biden claimed Monday that he had an Amtrak train key when he was a senator and would ride “about 15% of the time” with engineers on trips home to Delaware.
The 80-year-old president shared the memory in Baltimore while touting $4 billion from his $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure law that will be used to build a pair of train tunnels in the city to replace a passage from 1873.
“I can say it now since there’s different leadership. I used to about 15% of the time ride with the engineers, for real. And I’m the only guy that I’m aware of — when I stopped riding Amtrak — that had a key to get in the back,” Biden said.
It’s unclear if Biden has told the story before, though he regularly shares personal anecdotes that fall apart under scrutiny.
Amtrak spokespeople did not immediately respond to The Post’s request for comment.

"Biden claims he had Amtrak train key, rode home 15% of time with engineers."
Which was in violation of railway safety regulations.

That’s true. They would say “sometimes” or “once in a while”.

” and would ride “about 15% of the time” with engineers on trips home to Delaware.”
10% of the time he hung onto the top of the passenger cars.
Another 10% of the time he ran beside the train so it could conserve fuel.
“For real.”
