2014年1月18日 · I'm not sure where you exit the commuter rail but I see plenty of people head straight from the commuter rail to the subway (myself included). If they decide to separate the subway/bus access then I'm done riding the commuter rail; It's already too expensive for the quality of service provided and not really any cheaper than driving for me.

2020年10月24日 · Why Nobody Wants Commuter Rail Shame on me! I posted a lengthy message about commuter rail thinking such a system might benefit Charleston in controlling traffic congestion, mainly in the north area. Shame on me! I had no idea, and I certainly should have asked, what reasons people might have for opposing commuter rail.

2013年9月11日 · If I am driving to Newton or Wellesley, I prefer to trade the comfy commuter rail seats for the better flexibility of the MBTA over the commuter rail.

2007年12月27日 · The decision to drive or take the commuter rail... depends if you like to drive or not... Financially, ~$6/ride on commuter rail versus Rt90 tolls ($2.50 each way every day starting Jan. assuming you get on at Rt128; more if you get on at Natick), gas (~2-3gal/day or $6-9) and parking in Boston($300-400/month)...

2010年5月4日 · By itself, I agree that it is a substandard mass transit model, but it is not without merit. When Light-rail is used in an area with at least a reasonably high population density and is integrated in conjunction with a subway system then it works quite well.
