    "20+ minutes drive to Golden’s Bridge Metro North RR Station where parking can be difficult. Then an hour, 10 minutes train ride to Grand Central. Watch for potholes as Ridgefield Highway Dept does a poor job of paving and fixing pot holes turning them into washboards, if they fix them at all. "
