Ok? Really just sounds like the commuter rail could come more often which is a very easy fix. Public transit is pretty much only ever bad because governments won’t fund it, car-centric infrastructure is highly propritized and its peak is still trash.
Traffic is bad enough here, adding the million people who use just the metro per day to that would be the end of it all, and that’s not to mention our bike network and ability to walk to so many things. We upgrading our commuter rail to a proper high-frequency, dual-direction light rail system that will connect much of the island that has never been properly served. It’s gunna pop the hell off.
It’s cause of where it goes that it takes so long. The cr uses so much power you hear the full capacity kick in when they come into the station and everything vibrates, they’re the most powerful and they’re the fastest trains we have in my state.

It’s cause of where it goes that it takes so long. The cr uses so much power you hear the full capacity kick in when they come into the station and everything vibrates, they’re the most powerful and they’re the fastest trains we have in my state.
The main use of the cr, is to get out of the city which is why it takes so long. Purple line https://cdn.mbta.com/sites/default/files/2025-03/2025-03-24-commuter-rail-map-v.42f.pdf
