This is the greatest endorsement for the Downeaster and going to coastal Maine I've ever seen.

I would take capeflyer because it's important to support passenger rail, but honesty there's no excuse for how bad the service and food is. It makes amtrak look luxury in comparison

Come to CapeBus for the quality...free water and DIRECTV signal loss. But they had a redemption arc by saving you guys with lowering the fare and letting you on even without printed tickets so you wouldn't be stuck there! Shame they've since stopped running. I'm shocked Auntie Anne's has yet to hire you as a spokesperson! Provincetown looks nice! Quite Portuguese as shown with the Portuguese flags as many from the Azores settled there after being hired to work on US ships. Provincetown used to have a train station which was built in 1873 but sadly it closed in 1960. It's cool that they decided to build an inclined elevator. The Pilgrim Monument at the top is based on the Torre del Mangia in Italy and marks the Mayflower Compact signing.

Hate uber becouse the drivers can cancel on you, thats why I prefer actual taxis. Never been on the capeflyer, but thats anouther prolem on it's own, fine if it runs mermorial-labor day, but does it have to be weekends only? Would be better if it ran all week and more then 2 trains a day, maybe 6 or8 trains a day.

Nice! Love it! Welcome back Nathan, too!

Some day, you should try the flights also. I believe 9K and B6 both fly from Boston to Hyannis.

I'm from Harwich, it was nice to hear about it from one of my favorite KZfaqrs 😄

Now first class has carpeted floor, better legroom, and free drinks

Miles your stuff is so entertaining

You went to Provincetown on July 3rd? Oh dear lord! Hopefully no "breakthroughs" occurred.

the first class seats on the cape flyer seem to be repurposed from amtrak’s half cafe half business class cars

That Yankee bus is kind of significant since it's an Irizar (a Spanish manufacturer) and there are very few of them here in the states.

Not going to lie Inzar bodies are the best bus body on the market and them Yankee buses uses them! So that’s why they are so comfortable

Great as always! Your uploads make my day nicer, thanks for making this! Q: When is franklin park race? No pressure, I'm just curious, cause its looking to be great!

I took the CCRTA busses almost every day to and from High School, and man that was quite something. A 20 minute drive became an hour bus ride, and all the students would have to deal with all sorts of things from strangers too. If you guys had jumped on around the start or end of normal school hours the bus would have been full lol.

I love cape cod

Oh my god, that's me in the Sleestak ball cap behind you guys on the Peter Pan bus. I remember you guys, and was really amused by your commentary, but didn't know who you were then! I was going to PTown for the Fourth and couldn't take the ferry because they were cancelled due to an ocean storm, so I grabbed the Cape Flyer (for the first time) and Peter Panned it the rest of the way.

Great long-form video, and welcome back to the KZfaq! Definitely been through the printed tickets kerfuffle . . .in Mexico . . . Looking forward to seeing more adventures! (would still be down for Steamtown at some point...)

Oooh, cape bus video!! Last trains are always fun and iconic for the annoying connection waiting lol If you have 5 minutes to spare, we on the discord server miss your presence! ❤️

13:42 that person counting 😆

Those seats on CapeFlyer first class look like they're reupholstered Amtrak coach seats

The yankee Line bus you took is an Irizar i6 which is common to the Border States California Arizona New Mexico and Texas since they are sold in Mexico but not the US until 2016-2018. Plymouth and Brockton tends to do Hyannis to Logan Airport stops in RT-228 Norwell Park and Ride.

Can’t wait till you fix transit for us in your full time job.

Nathan forgot the fan favorite line "tracks are for trains not for playing games" not to mention the mbta needs advice from amtrak for intercity express trains

Perfect timing for me- planning a trip back to the Cape. Might use my Amtrak CC points for first leg of the travel, now I have thoughts on connecting into Hyannis.

I do this to go to the Vineyard every year.

Looks like those Cape Flyer "first class" seats were salvaged from the former ACES cars.

If they ever needed an expansion of a train this is it.

I’ve never found a flip seat I liked (except for the Silverliner III Airport subfleet), so maybe first class would be worth it to me?

Moved out of Hyannis back in 2019 I may visit back there next year January

Miles: Have there ever been initiatives to add private cars and specific CapeFlyer equipment for that train? LIRR has "The Cannonball" on same basic commuter equipment and these train are usually for folks who ask for better service (rich folks)... Chicago Metra has a Private Car on a "Commuter Club" in C&NW colors in one of their lines that go thru expensive neighborhoods... AAAND NJ TRANSIT has a Jersey Shore Commmuters Club Comet I believe with Amtrak Business class thrown in ala CapeFlyer... You believe more commuter rail operators should implement business class seats into their trains, offering a more enhanced service, for a few dollars more? PS: MBTA doesn't charge extra bucks for that Cape Cod jointed rail ala Buckingham Branch on the Cardinal... You should enjoy the Chief over Raton... Music to the ears of any phoamer...

Btw, are you still on the SEPTA Youth Advisory Council, and if so, did you play a part in the new SEPTA Metro rebranding proposal?

Lol… wondering where the old Amteak half cafe/ half business seats went lol

I've never found those foot rests particularly useful, but this is also coming from a tall person

Urk, tried to get the 210 schedule from their website. It doesn't play well with my website content blockers and kept reloading the page. Guess their server logs are going to be interesting. Tried another, less restrictive browser and it worked. But worse, it looks like you have to pick a particular stop to get a smart schedule for, no downloadable full schedule. ¡Wait! ¿what? ¿You took a T and a bus from downtown Boston to Braintree (and got a ride outside your usual rules) just so you could get a bus back to Logan? ¿¿¿??? You could get Snyder's to sponsor this video. By the way, ¡absolutely love the SEPTA Youth Advisory Council mask! Map fan here. I did miss your progress maps and got a bit confused from time to time about where you were. Took the Peter Pan from Providence to P-Town many years ago. Surprised at how long it took.

What happened to the CapeBus? If you try to book a ticket the website won't let you and there's no schedule available. I think they might've discontinued their service for 2022, I was looking forward to using them after watching this video too 😕

when is the Franklin park race coming out?

I don't know if this means anything, but CCRTA's website is down (3/14/2022). Have they folded?

Wait, I'm so confused. Why did they take the red line to Ashmont, bus it to Braintree, then get a ride to Logan Express from Braintree? Why didn't they just.....red line to silver line to airport for Capebus?

So you did this two days in a row?

Watching this again, since it's that time of the year. I think Capebus died? The website........... looks questionable to me, like I found a Cape Cod times article, and the link for it leands to a foreign website. Cape Flyer still annoys me with that 1 round trip a day nonsense, and P&B doesn't even hold true to the "B".

Why did you go all the way to Braintree?

PORTSMOUTH!!! NEWBURYPORT!!! DOVERRRRRR!!!

What about Cape Air??

You didn’t take every transit method between Boston and Cape Cod, Cape Air has daily flights between Hyannis and Boston

Will you be doing any videos not wearin masks? Hopefully up in the east you dont have to wear them-- If so, please disregard my remark- I really enjoy the videos

But the masks. C’mon, guys.
