If you're coming into SF from outside, consider the bus. Takes longer than BART to cover the same distance, but is far more comfortable and I find I am more able to make good use of the time.
- tikhonj 10y agoI've taken the bus to and from Berkeley before, but I highly prefer Bart. It's significantly faster and I actually find the train more comfortable, especially at off-peak times. The stations tend to be nice places to wait than outdoor bus stops too. I do have some friends who prefer the busses, so it's clearly not clear-cut.
- dllthomas 10y agoIt's certainly a YMMV kind of thing. > especially at off-peak times Yeah, BART is a much more pleasant experience at off-peak times than anywhere near rush-hour. In my experience, I still find the NL line (at least) uncrowded enough to get a seat any time of day (unless there's significant BART trouble).
- JauntTrooper 10y agoI travel by bus, but mainly because the BART is so =loud=. The screechy breaks and rumbling is almost painful, especially when going in the tunnel from East Bay into the city. It seems much louder than other subways in cities where I have lived. Have others experienced this?
