Cool! My commute is on here (Newburgh / Beacon, NY), although mine is a hair better.
My commute usually ranges from 1:50 to 2 hours. I get up at 6:30, a 10 minute walk to the Beacon train station for the 7:08 train which brings me straight to Grand Central.
I'm working from home right now, but I was literally always there first person into the office at about 9am.
The fact that no car is involved and it's only one mode of transportation to get into the city is what makes the commute very easy for me.
With my phone or iPad as a hotspot I can easy work, Reddit, or just play on my computer.
Grab a book and now you've got some good dedicated reading time.
To top it all off, you ride along the Hudson for the entire trip.
At times I certainly didn't love it, but I found it surprisingly bearable.
