Awesome service. Mostly CSX through here on the Framingham Secondary, but occasionally the MBTA Patriots train stops here.
This station is used for special events only.
I was a bit concerned after reading some of the reviews about the Patriots train. However, I thought the service was good. The train left Boston pretty much on time and arrived at the stadium as scheduled about 50 minutes before the game. The last section of the track after Walpole is not very good, the train has to go very slowly through the forest for safety reasons, I guess. With bad weather, this could be a problem. Once you get off the train, you just follow the pedestrian walkway to the stadium, very easy! On the way back, the train left on time and arrived back pretty much on time too. It is a fairly long train, and it gets crowded inside, but that is part of the fun. Overall, a good and reliable service.
