Reply to comment by Otree38 in The Silver Line to Dulles is a bigger deal than I thought it would be by MrMoustachio55

Cheapest DC fare is $2, but it goes up to $6, while the T is always $2.40. Advantages of the two layouts and neighborhood discussions are probably too complex for a Reddit comment. DC itself is much smaller than Greater Boston, so I think it really depends. Both have green lines that go to baseball, at least. 😄

I was specifically referring to the commuter rail fares vs metro fares. The $10 weekend passes help but it’s often more expensive than a comparable distance on the Metro (say, like going to Shady Grove or Ashburn)

That’s more like a MARC or VRE ticket, then, which are also about that much.
