Joey, baby! It can’t be true.
Former President Joe Biden has been commuting on Amtrak most weeks to his government-provided DC office — where little known work is being done — and allegedly forgot a top rule of the train.
“He was talking in the quiet car!” a disbelieving Amtrak regular vented to The Post.
The 82-year-old former chief executive, who rode the route back and forth to Delaware during his 36 years in the Senate, also has gotten rusty on the cafe car’s offerings.
Biden recently asked for ice cream — his favorite snack — but had to settle for a muffin.
Amtrak’s “quiet car” is the second on the Acela — behind first class — and its code of conduct is enforced by conductors and passengers who brusquely hiss “shhhhhh!” at violators.
The ex-president’s travels have been captured in a stream of photos from fellow riders — and even a brief May 8 interview with CNN’s Dana Bash.
The Amtrak he was on was stopped last week due to a track issue outside of Baltimore and fellow riders flocked to the Democrat for selfies.
Biden, who dropped his re-election bid last year amid a mutiny by allies over his perceived cognitive decline, has been visiting DC roughly once a week for meetings, the Wall Street Journal reported last month.
Several alums of the Biden White House say there’s intrigue into what exactly he is doing at his temporary office a short distance from DC’s Union Station.
The General Services Administration pays for the office until July, meaning Biden will have to relocate soon if he intends to continue commuting to the capital.
“It’s really a mystery,” one former Biden aide said of his activities while visiting DC, noting that staff still working for Biden “avoid answering.”
“They’re supposed to be setting up library stuff but no one has heard anything,” this person said.
“We’re all wondering the same thing because he doesn’t go to restaurants or anything public around here.”
Biden has announced plans to write a book and sources tell The Post the family faces financial difficulties after losing his $400,000 presidential pay.
He has struggled to find takers for his offer to give speeches for $300,000 — a figure first reported by The Post — while his son Hunter Biden, who formerly raked in millions from abroad, admits to trouble selling his artworks.
A Biden spokesperson did not immediately provide information on the former president’s activities — or dispute that he was talking in the quiet car.
