nyc: A Brazilian friend of mine is in Utica and she would like to come NYC by train or by bus. Which is the best for a tourist with a limited budget? How can I get the schedules for her ?|||If your main concern is being frugal, ALWAYS take the bus. If your main concern is comfort, ALWAYS take the train. *Personally, I'm cheap and usually prefer the bus, but the bus tends to get crowded and uncomfortable for someone who doesn't like close contact with strangers. *However, on the same note, the train may offer more personal space, but it almost always runs late, and costs around 25% more.
