Commuter Rail

 May 16, 2011  Monday Morning

We were scheduled to go to Plymouth MA on Saturday but didn't realize that the commuter rail was not running because of track repairs.  So...we changed plans and went on Monday!

We walked to the subway station (which was closed for track repair) and took a city bus to North Station and THEN took the subway to Braintree Station where we were to catch the commuter rail.  We had to wait awhile so we visited with the station host and he gave us some valuable information.  He said to not be alarmed when we got to the Plymouth station because it was behind an old wal-mart and in a seedy looking part of town...Don't be alarmed????  Right!!!  When we arrived there were taxi's available so we didn't have to stay at the station long.  All in all it was very enjoyable...kinda gave us a sense of stepping into another world...very much different than the Missouri Ozarks!!
