It’s not anything close to light or commuter rail like the northeast has near the coast. I can ride from Amtrak DC to Boston (Uber to south station ugh) and be on a commuter train going most eastern parts of the state. Same for CT, NY, and probably NJ but who goes there!?
But dare I take the Downeaster past Portland, I had better have a car waiting for me at the station because Brunswick Maine doesn’t even have a bus that I’m aware of. Probably have to Fiver some Bowdoin kid to get me the next hour home.
Amtrak is transportation if you use a normal definition of what transportation is you fucking idiot
