This service is good news. However, it will likely either make or break future,
more frequent , service, such as daily summer service and even year round
commuter service in the future.
If the service is well patronized, it will give incentives to expand the service
down the road. On the other hand, if it carries few riders, hope for expanded
service will likely go by the board.
The Downeaster service will celebrate it's eleventh birthday on Friday. When
it began, no one knew for sure how it would go over. It set a new record of
528,000 passengers in the last fiscal year. Let's hope CapeFlyer gets off to a
great start in its first summer of operation.
