I for once bought a $5 MegaBus ticket in advance. Partially because of my North […]

Yesterday, I realize I’ve gotten all my work done for the week and with my boss away I might as well go on a trip somewhere. It becomes a toss up between DC and Montreal. When I find out low bucket (non-14 days in advance) Amtrak fares the short way to DC are now over […]
Today I did another points run and more SEPTA stations trip to Philadelphia that I put onto my itinerary back from via Keystone Train Syracuse. It was a $10 addition. Im running late, and leave the house at 8:45. I get off the A train at Penn Station at 9:12. At 9:17 I’m entering the […]

Today, me and my one railfan friend decided it was time to go down to Philly and together visit every station on the Broad Street Line. I am not at all a fan of buses but New York to Philly is one of the few rides I can tolerate since the bus is so much […]
Greetings from the 8:15 Bolt Bus run to Newark on which I am the only passenger which feels strange. I decided to do something I’ve been meaning to do for the entire summer go spend the day on an independence pass in Philly, I hadn’t gone there to railfan since 2006, and now the day […]
