[TriLUG] OT: your RTP commute? my office is relocating to RTP from Cary

[tomed at bellsouth.net]

Wasn't referring to the BWI station - I meant that Baltimore light rail
has a direct airport station, no bus transfer needed. BWI is a heavy
rail connection with Amtrak and MARC.

JFK now has direct rail, or actually, rail to rail. JFK has a rail line
that connects to either LIRR or the NY subway. The LIRR link will shoot
you straight into Penn.

Forgot about Atlanta, that's a nice one.
