Anytime! I've done the BOS-PVD trip on both MBTA and Amtrak for years so it's definitely doable. Try to find ways to make the time feel productive and useful, whether that's packing a breakfast/coffee or finding a good headphone and laptop groove. Take a deep breath during unexpected issues.

There was a RIDOT proposal back in 2020 for fare integration, so you could use an MBTA monthly pass to take either the Commuter Rail or Amtrak between Boston or Providence (as well as for RIPTA) - however, it seems that idea has stalled? If anyone on here would benefit from this, it's probably worth sending RIDOT an email to let them know people still want it.
