Reply to comment by FAYCSB in Remember when RI spent millions on an MBTA station with no transit-oriented development or ridership base? by ToadScoper

A friend of mine took TF Green to Backbay every day for a job. Made it sound like a not big deal, convinced me to get a job in Boston

I rode from S Attleboro to South Station, and then red line to Kendall, for about a year before I started to drive it instead. And then I started working from home.

I cannot go back to that commute. The train isn’t so bad…it’s idle time which I don’t seem to get a lot of these days, and could really use more of. But the schedule sucks, and driving into Cambridge is just so damn draining.

I’m in Cumberland now. The switch from Wickford to Attleboro/South was great. An hour seems like so much better than 2+. But after working from home for two and a half years the thought of having to go back to commuting regularly is…not great.
