What a waste

have to hope this is some kind of a preliminary schedule/test the tracks/ something. Check it out:

Inbound to Boston, weekdays, there are 6 trains -- 3 clustered between 6 and 7AM, 3 clustered from 6:30-8 PM. Since no flights land at PVD that early, who the heck is riding these morning trains? And, obviously, if you arrive at PVD noon to 5 pm, you have to wait for the first train to Boston which is at 6:27.

Outbound from Boston south, there are 3 trains, all about 5-6pm, which appear to turn back at the above times. The 3 early AM trains appear to originate in PVD at 5-6 am.

No service on the weekends is posted. It says service starts Dec 6.

They cant be serious. This is useless to most air travelers.
