although a long time rider I do very little NEC running does the regional from lynchburg go through to Bos. and how much time should I allow between South Bos and North Bos as I want to take the Downeaster to Portland
Yes, the new NEC Regional serving Lynchburg provides direct service from Lynchburg to Boston.although a long time rider I do very little NEC running does the regional from lynchburg go through to Bos. and how much time should I allow between South Bos and North Bos as I want to take the Downeaster to Portland
I think I will chance it with a cab but will leave myself enough time to do so there are so many combinations of trains to get to bos hard to choose just don't want toget off in WAS or NYPA better transfer, if you don't have much luggage, is to take the Regional to Back Bay (1 stop before South Station). From Back Bay, you can catch the Orange Line (also in the station, up the escalator and just next to the Amtrak tracks) which go right to North Station!
If you have many bags, you may want to go to South Station and grab a cab. Either way, allow at least 1 hour to be sure.
I'm not sure if you mean Amtrak to Boston, or the T when in Boston.I think I will chance it with a cab but will leave myself enough time to do so there are so many combinations of trains to get to bos hard to choose just don't want toget off in WAS or NYPA better transfer, if you don't have much luggage, is to take the Regional to Back Bay (1 stop before South Station).

If you meant Amtrak trains to Boston, EVERY Amtrak train going to Boston stops at Back Bay to drop off passengers - then continues 1 MILE MORE to South Station!
If you meant the T (subway), from Back Bay, you board the Orange Line at Back Bay and get off at North Station like 5-6 stops later! If you took the T from South Station, you would need to take 1 line IIRC 1 stop and transfer to another line. Or you could take a cab. The cost of the T is IIRC $1.75. A cab is much more.
