Hey NYCBlue,

I have been offered accommodation in New Rochelle, New York. I checked the train to Penn Station but its like 40usd return (can't be right shirley?), not worth doing that for 4 people every time we want to travel into town.

Is there an easier/cheaper option from there to get in and out?

We'll go for 2 weeks and pop in and out maybe 5 to 7 times

Cheers mate
