        Calling the Northeast Corridor “half-decent” is like calling Air Canada a “reliable airline.”

        True, if your point of reference is Somalia.

          The metro in DC is great, and I have no trouble using SEPTA in the Philly area. NJ transit to NYC mainly sucks right now because they need to build a new tunnel under the Hudson since hurricane Sandy which is in process. The NY subway might be chaos but you can get anywhere in the city easily. I’ve ridden public transport abroad and at home and I really haven’t had trouble getting around in the Northeast. I find SEPTA regional rail comparable to Toronto’s line in and out of the airport.
