Personally, I'd rather travel by boat.








It's a nice boat ride through LI Sound and then up to Boston.




When I was a kid, though, I was on the train at least once a month from


New Haven to Back Bay Station to visit grandparents and aunts and uncles


and cousins. It was a great train ride back then. At least once, I had


to navigate myself from Back Bay to Maverick Station to get to Revere


Beach via the BEYr streetcar line. My paternal grandparents lived there.


I was probably 11 years old at the time. Great adventure.




Not recommended travel for an 11 year old now-a-days.


That's due to the influx of dangerous Republicans.
