The bus is the clear winner from the standpoint of cost:
CalTrain bypasses the occasional traffic stoppages on Highway 101 and operates until midnight, while the evening bus’ last run is at 6:30. CalTrain is also the only transit alternative that permits eating and drinking (including alcohol which I only imbibe on the way home for medicinal reasons of course).
On Thursday the morning news said that a broken track in San Mateo resulted in a half-hour delay in both directions. So I drove north to Millbrae and snagged the next train to San Francisco (if none arrived I would have switched to BART a few feet away). It’s wonderful to have options. © 2008 Stephen Yuen
