Hello,
I'm debating taking the LSL between BOS and ALB next week just for the heck of it. I was thinking of going to NYP, but the round trip on the LSL (448) is cheaper than one way on a NEC train to NYP, and it is a route I haven't taken yet. I'll have to spend the night in ALB, but I have a gazillion hotel points I can use, so that's no problem.
My only issue is that I'll be taking the bus from NH to BOS, and the ETA of the LSL is 9:10pm, and the last bus northbound for where I want to go leaves at 10:00. Is that cutting it too close? My understanding from reading this board, its common for trains originating from Chicago to be very late. It's showing as on time for today, in fact the current status has it getting into BOS 1:19 early.
