Reply to comment by [deleted] in Does anyone commute from Providence to Boston each day by train? We are seriously considering purchasing a home but we work at Mass General Hospital. Looking for people with experience to either talk us into it or talk us out of it. by [deleted]

My door to door averages between 54-62mins. This includes biking to the train station and walking from south station to my office.

I think the monthly passes are $348/month in Amtrak vs $388 for MBTA. My employer subsidizes my commuter passes to encourage use of public transit so the cost really wasn't part of the calculus for us when we chose to move down here.
