Lowell to Boston at night... (buses, train, cheapest)

[celtix66]

Hey there,
I am hoping that someone might know the best, cheapest way to get from Lowell back into Boston (or at least to a T station). I will be at a concert in Lowell, and I am afraid it won't be over before the last commuter rail leaves Lowell.... Are there any buses that travel later?

Any suggestions would be great.

Check out mbta.com for schedules. There are late "inbound" trains from Lowell every night of the week. When a concert or major hockey game or what have you is still going on past the time of the last train out of North Station, the T either delays it or adds another. It might be a stretch to think that they'd do the same for an event at Tsongas Arena, but ya never know.

Commuter rail is the only game in town for transpo between Lowell and Boston.
