Do try to get a ride on the Acela -- say to Providence or New Haven. You might also take a look, if you have time, at the Downeaster out of North Station (some nice scenery).

Restored 50=year old PCC cars on an ex-railroad right of way for fast running. Nocew scenery too. Good photo opportunities. Reply Join our Community! Our community is FREE to join.
