From the pike you have the choice of taking 128 (exit 14) north to rt 2 and proceding as before. Or you can take 128 south one exit to the Riverside station where it is cheaper to park (I can’t remember how much; I walk there), but the getting on the T costs $3 instead of $1.25. Riverside is the end of the Green D line.

I was short on time, and wasn't really sure about where I was going at the time, so I drove right in and parked at the Pru. I won't do that again!

OK, here is a question. I read that the Braintree stop has an exit fee. Huh? (Thanks for that info, Elviis)

quote: he had come through in his spare time and signed all their hardcovers as well. He was the only author who does that on a regular basis He does more than that-- at the last DC area signing, he apparently signed all the copies of Shadow of the Hegemon in the Union Station bookstore. Why he was in Union Station, I have no idea; I thought he and kacard were drivers, not train riders. And kacard is exceptionally cool.

No, you third it...I told her that in person this weekend. Not to mention in the Boskone thread.

To increase fares without retrofitting the turnstyles, the T would charge people to get off the train. Read about it here I don't have time to fact check the site, but it's a good place to start.
