One advice from my side, you can slightly shift hours of your commute to avoid rush hours. When I was commuting to my work I usually started my work somehow between 11:00 - 12:00 AM. For some people this means your evenings are screwed but it worked for myself. Since there is little traffic at later hours and trains are usually quieter you will have more chances to relax/read a book/listen to audiobooks etc.
Also my friend has a long train drive to work (about 1h in each direction) and he... sleeps in the train. He OTOH is going to work very early, he starts at around 7:00 - 8:00. So I guess it all depends how flexible your company is when it comes to working hours.
Disclaimer: I am from central europe, not US so my advice may not apply to your situation well. Public transport is quite good in my country (and cheap).
