Logan Express runs inbound trips at 2:15am, 3:00am, 3:30am, 4:00am, 4:30am, 5:00am, and 5:30am. Do these busses deadhead back to their suburban origins after each trip?

If rail congestion in Connecticut means the alternative to running to Long Island is turning around in New York City, then giving (some) Long Islanders a one-seat ride to Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington D.C. might be worth a try.

Would bypassing Philadelphia on the New Jersey side of the Delaware River be wise?

Might as well add Northborough to the Framingham/Worcester line too, I guess

Sudbury residents formed an organization to oppose the construction of a new power line along the ROW of the former B&M Central Mass branch. Power lines don't drive cars nor do they send their children to school. Clearly, there is more at play here than simply concerns about funding...

Nobody is mandating that any particular household must redevelop their McMansion subdivision into a 5 over 1. The new law simply leaves these decision for individual property owners, who are the authority most concerned with local issues, to make according to own needs and desires.

I live near the ROW and it has been exciting to see things take form.

Are the single track stretches on Newbury/Rockport and Fitchburg more significant than the wildcat express operation on Lowell?

EWR has a rail station to facilitate connections between intercontinental flights and NE corridor trains.

How much legacy pre-1924 streetcar infrastructure is there on the Blue Line? Is it enough to significantly decrease the cost of converting to LRT compared to a heavy metro that was never a trolley line in the past (MBTA Red Line for example)? Does @F-Line to Dudley or anyone else know any...

The parking lot at Riverside is hardly a piece of priceless irreplaceable infrastructure.

I think building a CR infill station in Weston at "Norembega Junction" with provisions for future extension of Riverside trains makes the most sense to me.

Would the Star Market in Newtonville provide any challenges?

How crazy would it be to consign freight movements on track 61 to street running along the bypass road? Is traffic on that road heavy? How frequently would freight trains travel that way?

Is there an engineering reason why the blue line couldn't use its pantographs on a hypothetical at-grade ROW beside the Esplanade? Doesn't Chicago operate grade crossings with heavy rail rapid transit?

Officially, the final inbound train from Dulles leaves at 11:08pm Sunday-Thursday. Compare that with Braintree's final inbound train at 12:05 am. An extra hour of service really counts for a lot.

I live and work in College Park and it has been really exciting to see the platforms and shelter standing at Riverdale Park North–UMD station. Despite the delays and cost overruns, I am still looking forward to riding this train when it is complete.

Are you talking about the unpaved lot that Lincoln residents use to park for free?

Is there enough space underneath those bridges for two tracks AND catenary wire?

I think it has something to do with the vertical clearance underneath the bridges on Jackson Street & Newton Street
