I got a round trip from BOS-AKL; BNE-DAB last fall for 68k miles. I wanna go back! Maybe I need to now….

Imagine what that street is like in the winter!

Also @mbta.com, can you explain to me why you have six train cars yet I get yelled at by the staff if I don’t walk to the end of the train and load one car?

Getting an obnoxious reply/being yelled at from a worker doesn’t make me want to use your service again.

The seats are similar to Delta’s A321neo, right? At least those recline well.

My uncle was an nyc subway motorman decades ago. I vividly remember sitting up front watching him work and seeing the tunnels from the view only YouTube videos can give today.

My dad was an nyc bus driver and I’ll forever cherish the days I rode the bus with him.

It was awesome!! You definitely made the right call with switching to it.

I need to get down there to see it. I recall my mom and I accidentally catching this on the A train at 59th street. We rode it to 181st Street, and I couldn't believe how fast that train 'flew' down the line.

The train felt like something from Disney at the time, compared to the other trains.

Extremely well done Miles. Did u use microphones? The audio was crazy good and the video colors looked more vibrant.

Wish I could have ridden. I found a $166 fare from 128 to NYC the night before and was tempted, but just came off a JetBlue 25/25 travel day.

I took an Uber from White Plains airport simply because I didn’t have a MetroCard and wasn’t fumbling around for 275 in quarters.

Why is taking transit made so difficult for people that want to?

Oh, you know they will anyway. LOL. Transit peeps know better.

Just started watching and I immediately wondered... "Is that Jason?" YUP!

Lucky!!! Wanted to do the inaugural but couldn’t afford those prices and do the B6 challenge at the same time.

Will be out grabbing photos and videos of the BOS-NYC next-gen trekking around Mass.

I've only been there once in the past 10 years, I scored Delta 360 tickets for a random May afternoon game. It was nice, but it just feels so corporate vs. Citi Field.

Most New Yorkers -- even Yankees fans -- will admit, the better fan experience is at Citi Field in Queens.

They also make the atmosphere inside more electric at key moments.
