Commuter rail usually comes more frequently than that, no? And if you know when it comes and it’s not two hours late then you’re waiting around for it unless you’re way too fuckin’ early.

it's quicker for the city but if you're going into Woburn for a dispensary run, that takes less than 10 mins to perform the transaction (saying for the sake of actual example that I've been in, the dispo workers are the best and I didn't mean they're slow) and takes 10 mins to walk there from the CR stop, that's less than 40 mins away by driving so lets say about an 80 minute round trip, that's an hour and twenty minutes round trip. If I take the commuter rail that's 20 minutes to the city using the local train , the 15 minute wait at North Station (because YOU DO want to be early for the commuter rail and that's if you know your schedule and you know you're gonna make it, sometimes there's games and you lose out waiting at the fare gate lines), and about an hour and a half there and then a two hour wait after the short shopping trip.

So to put it into perspective: That's half your day wasted for what could be an hour and a half there and back. Traffic with driving could maybe add about 25 minutes but the amount of time I use on a single dispensary run to Woburn and back using the local train and the cr, I could take a plane to Denver, not even kidding about that, I just used Google Maps and double checked that flight time.
