They can definitely find 500 to 1000 on any given day that would need to "get back" for a one-day meeting in Boston, or, as a tourist, visit Boston for a day. Given that weekday trains would run as extensions of pre-existing Marlboro trains, their cost is lower and the bar for success is lower. See much earlier in the thread for proposed schedules.
for tourists and local day trippers to Boston.. That would probably do well..I'm sure lots of out of state
vacationers would relish being able to visit Boston ihe summer w/o the aggravation of traffic on and off
