Pros: Very pleasant until I arrived in Boston which was the first leg of my journey. Cons: After arriving in Boston, I had to switch to a bus to continue to Bangor, Maine. I had a difficult time locating the bus station due to lack of signs or a customer service area.There was no indication anywhere that the bus station itself was 2 escalator flights above me.I actually wandered outside at one point.I received assistance from fellow passengers and found the bus station area purely " by luck". The station itself was not very organized and I found by departure gate again due to luck. The electronic board for all departures did not a thing about my bus .It was eventually on an overhead board above my departure that a passenger that I had spoken to in the bus terminal earlier pointed out to me.There was no customer service in the bus terminal at all.There were also no personnel where tickets could be purchased, so consequently no one to ask questions. It was all very confusing. I purchased my tickets online and thought I switch from the rain to the bus in an efficient manner and it proved to be the exact opposite due to all of this lack of direction or areas for assistance.Since I am now familiar due to this experience, I'm hoping my return home will be less stressful when I depart from the bus to the connecting Amtrak train. Tips: A more comprehensive map of the Boston train/bus station would be most beneficial.

Pros: I love trains for 4-hour trips that would be more annoying and way more polluting by car or plane. I worked all morning, picked up a take out lunch walking to work, made it to work by 1 pm. Cons: Nothing. Tips: Buy train tix early, they go up like flights.

Pros: Very comfortable; enjoyed the scenic views by day, and other passengers very friendly. Cons: I was comfortable in my chosen seat. I cant remember which stop, but, I was asked to get up and move to another train car... I didn't like that. I'm a senior citizen and I was traveling alone... Tips: Day travel is best.
