A small clarification if I may; only the first 4 segments on any one day earn the 100 point minimum. Ride 5 segments where each segment cost less than $50; only the first 4 will earn the 100 point minimum. The 5th will earn the normal 2 X $1 in points, as would the 6th segment as so on.
And of course the rule about each segment needing to be on a different train still applies to all of the above.
