Thanks for the information. If there are people driving from Schenectady to Montreal, that would cut an entire day off travel, which would be nice. Possibly even two days (or rather, an extra day in Montreal) since I have the choice of arriving at 7:10 pm either on Thursday or Friday.

Looks like going to New York doesn't really pay, once I actually checked out the routings.

I'll post a query in the FP community.
