Not surprisingly, bridge traffic was epic over the holiday weekend, but quite a few folks chose to ride the rails instead: "Returning for the first weekend since its inaugural summer, the CapeFlyer tourist train rolled out of the station with no sign of a proverbial "sophomore slump" on the horizon, as ridership rose 28 percent from the same opening days last year. Between Thursday and Monday, 1,035 passengers rode from Boston to Cape Cod — an increase of 227 from last year's Memorial Day weekend, according to the Cape Cod Regional Transit Authority."
