Reply to comment by [deleted] in Wu wants to cut fares at Boston’s commuter rail stations. Is that really a good idea? (NO PAYWALL) by GlobeOpinion

Newark to Manhattan is roughly 12 miles or 18 mins ride in the train. That’s the equivalent of Newton to Boston… They are roughly the same price in the commuter rail

Newark to NYC is more expensive when using the Path vs the T

You are right overall. I was pointing out that NYC / NJ metro is not that special either. I currently live in NJ. I think the Septa is a bit more reliable, but overall same stuff.

We need more European style metros without the French strikes though
