nanananananananana BATMAN!!!!!!!!! Oh, this is the BAT Center, not the BAT Cave? Booooo…….. Well, at least we’re in downtown Brockton now. Oh yeah, there’s a Commuter Rail station here too.
We’ll get to you in a little bit…
The BAT Center is BAT’s main bus terminal, where all their routes (sans the BSU campus shuttles and the Rockland Flex) all converge. While I was here on a Saturday, the cafe tenant that was here was closed, however in terms of other things, you have restrooms, BAT customer service, a very pixelated system map. There’s also a CharlieCard machine that was barricaded (BAT was fare-free). Yea, that’s right! BAT takes the trusty CharlieCard!!! The building is pretty nice, too, all things considered. There’s a pick up/drop off area on the road between the BAT Center and the Commuter Rail platform. So, walking to the Commuter Rail platform, it’s standard. The fact it’s behind the Brockton PD headquarters is a little sus, but whatever. It’s an island platform, and this section of the line is designed for trains to pass each other. As such, track 1 is outbound and track 2 is inbound. Yellow matrix signage, shelters, benches, blah blah blah. There’s a grade crossing here, though! And it’s in downtown Brockton, which is nice too. There’s some parking, not too much (apparently there’s a garage nearby?), and then, something amazing happened at the top of the hour as my friend and I were leaving.
At the top of the hour and half past, EVERY BAT route leaves the terminal. This, is the pulse. And, by god, is it a glorious thing to witness. All the buses leaving at the same time in a coordinated manner. BAT might be a smaller system, but for a first impression, they REALLY seem to have their shit together. Overall though, not bad!

The good: Location! It’s in downtown Brockton! It’s also intermodal with the BAT terminal and the Commuter Rail station pretty much being in the same spot. Furthermore, the BAT Center has some decent amenities. The Commuter Rail platform is standard, though.
The bad: Eh, not a lot here. I genuinely don’t have anything to say that’s bad.
Nearby points of interest: Downtown Brockton!
Transit connections: Commuter Rail (Fall River, New Bedford) BAT (1, 2, 3, 4, 4A, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10/11, 12, 14)
Overall, it’s probably……the only perfect Old Colony station?! Yeah, looks like we have gold in an unlikely place!
A bigass parking lot? In front of Brockton’s section 8 housing? And with a Commuter Rail platform? Well, don’t mind if I do! Welcome to Campello Station!
Signage!
Campello is a singular side platform off the Middleborough (soon to be Fall River/New Bedford) Line, and is original to the 1997 opening of the line from South Station to Lakeville (later extended seasonally to Hyannis in 2013). It’s got your usual Middleborough Line amenities (sheltered area, yellow signage, benches, a lot of parking, etc.), and it’s also got a bus connection by way of BAT’s route 8. Unfortunately, though, the stop was not signed. So, of course, when my friend and I took BAT to get outta here, we had to bolt for the bus. Fortunately, a kind old lady and the bus operator waited for them and (mostly) my slow feet. Yeah, I don’t have much to say about this station. However, as for land use, you have section 8 housing across the street! There’s also a small industrial area nearby as well. I do wonder though, does the Brockton Housing Authority development qualify as MBTA Communities Act compliance? Anyways. I mean, it’s a basic station, but it’s certainly no slouch for land use vs. some other stations.
An F40 bilevel set!Cab car!And away to Fall River New Bedford Lakeville with you!Track shot towards Braintree and BostonParking!Industrial land use!Somehow the section 8 housing feels out of place, but it’s also a necessity.The sheltered areaStation shot
The good: It’s across the street from a section 8 housing development! There’s also a bit of parking, and BAT bus connections! However…
The bad: THE BUS STOP ISN’T SIGNED OR MARKED CLEARLY! Also, is this much parking necessary?! It’s barely filled up on a weekday OR a weekend! Also, I have a feeling that double tracking here might help, but there’s only so much that can be done on that front given the mainline being single tracked in Quincy and South Boston.
Nearby points of interest: It’s mostly suburbia, but you have some industrial stuff and section 8 housing!
Transit connections: Commuter Rail (Fall River, New Bedford) BAT (8)
South Weymouth is yet another Kingston Line station, however unlike most of them, there’s actually stuff nearby! Let’s look.
Signage!
So, the station is copy-pasted largely (unsurprising), complete with wastebaskets, benches, yellow dot matrix signage, and even an expansive parking lot! But, in a shocking twist of fate, there’s GOOD LAND USE?! WOAH! Yeah, shockingly, there’s TOD here! On BOTH sides of the track no less! You have two apartment complexes, a pizza place, and then usual suburbia once you get a little ways out. Fun fact, though, this actually used to be a naval air station! Sadly, though, no buses go out here – with the route 226 bus to Braintree being a 1 and a half mile walk north. Nevertheless, it’s not that bad a station!

Oops.Housing!Cycling infrastructure!The Trottier Rd. grade crossingHousing!It calls itself a diner but doesn’t bear the prefab diner appearance…Watershed signage!
The good: Usual Kingston Line talking points. Platform amenities. Shelter. Full level boarding. Also, the land use is actually pretty good!
The bad: The 226 really should run down here… Also, I can’t help but feel this station is just begging to be double tracked…
Nearby points of interest: It’s suburbia, but Columbian Square is a little ways north with the 226!
Transit connections: Commuter Rail (Kingston)
Overall, I’d say this might just be the best station on the entire line, boiling to land use. Good job, Weymouth!!!
The last of the shuttered MBTA stations. Well, this one was a particularly nasty one to do as well. Located in the Cordage Park area of North Plymouth (near the Kingston/Plymouth boundary), I had several options, all of which were unpleasant for a variety of reasons, for trying to handle this station: 1. I could buy an Uber to/from. This cheated me out of the fun of pain and suffering. (yes, I suffer for y’all. :3) 2. Pray that a friend was able to ferry me to/from. This would have been the same as option #1 for downsides, however at least I would be able to banter with a friend in the process. Sadly, I had no friends available that were up for this. 3. Utilize the GATRA Freedom/Liberty Links. It’s GATRA. I probably was in for a bad time regardless, plus I didn’t have cash on me, and I didn’t know how to use the GATRA Pay app. Furthermore, GATRA’s own website doesn’t mention GATRA Pay ANYWHERE. So, if I used it, I was at the risk of a bus operator telling me to fuck off. 4. Walk the 2 and a half miles from Kingston/Rte. 3 to Cordage Park. This had the issue of being a long walk. Unfortunately, this was also the path of least resistance.
OCEAN!GAHTRUH!PLYMOUTH!!!I don’t think it’s active much these days…There she is, all the way in the back
So, after a long and treacherous walk, and likely mildly injuring myself at the Kingston Collection/Rte. 3 interchange, I finally made it to Cordage Park, and the former least-used Old Colony station, and one of the least-used on the entire Commuter Rail system. So, with that in mind, how is it?
Hello, from Plymouth!
Well, the platform is your standard Kingston/Old Colony platform, with a shelter, benches, wastebaskets, and a yellow dot matrix sign. However, since the station is shuttered, the sign was turned off. In terms of bus connections, you have the Freedom and Liberty Links on Rte. 3A/Court Street. There’s a small amount of parking as well. Originally, allegedly, this also was intended to be the sole terminus of the line, however there was no space for a yard here specifically. Though, I do wonder, if the dilapidated building nearby could be demolished and replaced with a small yard akin to that of Needham’s or Franklin’s layover facility. There’s also a rail trail following the ocean into downtown Plymouth. As for land use, it’s depressingly pretty good. I say depressingly here, because if the station was treated better, it’d probably qualify as TOD. Overall, though, the station’s actually pretty good. It’s just sad that it got killed off by shitty operational practices. Below is a picture of how bad it was.
This is bad.
To serve BOTH stations, trains heading to Boston would originate at Plymouth (marked with a P in the diagram), go up the blue-colored line, clear the interlocking where the three colors meet, BE PUT INTO REVERSE, DO BRAKE TESTS, PRESUMABLY WITH THE ENGINEER RUNNING TO CHANGE ENDS OF THE TRAIN, then go down the yellow-colored line to Kingston/Rte. 3 (marked with a K). THEN REVERSE AND BRAKE TEST AGAIN, and FINALLY head on out to Boston via the Kingston/Plymouth Line (marked in green), making the usual stops. THAT. IS. BAD. YEAH. AND ALL THIS TIME BETWEEN THE TWO STOPS, THE TRAIN IS SIMULTANEOUSLY THE INBOUND AND THE OUTBOUND! RAAAAAAAAAAGH. THAT MEANS, IF YOU WANT TO GO FROM HALIFAX TO KINGSTON, OUTBOUND, YOU’D BE ON THE TRAIN FOR A GOOD 40-50 MINUTES, JUST TO GO WHAT SHOULD BE A 7 MILE JOURNEY. FURTHERMORE, IF YOU WANTED TO GO FROM PLYMOUTH TO HALIFAX INBOUND, THAT’S ANOTHER 40 OR SO MINUTES. JESUS CHRIST THIS WAS BAD. Just double track the entire line and run trains from both termini, some turning in downtown, and some at Braintree. Just, please…anything but this again should the station reopen.
Ocean and a missing signOnwards to …pocket tracks?And towards BostonThis station has also seen better daysSomebody ACTUALLY UPDATED THE SCHEDULEThe sign is turned offDilapidated building!Shelter!Another watershed sign!A Dial a Ride van!An island, I think…Accessible parking!No gates or lights!Wide open view of the ocean!
The good: It’s surprisingly kinda close to downtown Plymouth! (though, not IN downtown Plymouth, which is annoying in its own right). There’s also development around it, after the land use being kinda shit for the longest time (a Walmart?!)
The bad: Operational practices, really. That’s what killed ridership here and, killed service entirely.
Nearby points of interest: Around Cordage Park? There’s a boardwalk and a beach! Going up to downtown, though, and you have stuff like the Mayflower, Plymouth Rock (it’s just a random rock someone carved “1620” into, don’t visit it), and even…….cult activities??? Yeah……..I don’t know much about the Twelve Tribes, but from a friend that lives in the area, she told me that they actually set up shop in the area. I digress. The oceanside views are pretty nice, though!
wait, what? this is a different Kingston? Well shit.
Kingston is an MBTA station located in the middle of an industrial park off Route 3 in, well, Kingston, Massachusetts. It’s one of the two termini for the Kingston/Plymouth (presently just Kingston) Line, and before Plymouth was closed, was more heavily used than Plymouth. With that aside, here’s the station review.
This signage has seen better days.
Kingston is a bigass park and ride station in an industrial park, located off Route 3. The platform is pretty bogstandard, with benches, wastebaskets, signage, and shelters. There’s even a kiss & ride area! Also, GATRA stops here! Yes, that’s right! About 6 times a day, the Freedom and Liberty Links stop to serve this station. GATRA’s Seaside Area InterLink (SAIL) also serves here, on the way to Marshfield and Duxbury. Neat! However, given the limited schedule (really? no Saturday bus service to here?!), just buy a fucking Uber instead. Way to go, GATRA. Also, it’s in an industrial wasteland, so land use is pretty bad overall. As a cool note though, the end-of-line layover facility is just beyond the station. However, trains do NOT sit at the station before turning around. Instead, they have to do all their brake testing in the yard before coming back. Oof. But, not a bad station. Just, not a grandiose terminus like Providence or Wickford, or even like Needham Heights or Haverhill.
*does some further research*
YOU MEAN THE STATION USED TO BE LOCATED IN DOWNTOWN KINGSTON?! WHY?! WHY THE FUCK DIDN’T THEY REACTIVATE THE PLATFORM THERE?! WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK WERE THEY SMOKING?! THERE’S NO REASON THIS STATION HAD TO BE BUILT OTHER THAN SOLELY FOR YARD ACCESS. HOLY FUCKING SHIT, THEY REALLY FUMBLED IT HARD! GOD FUCKING DAMMIT!
Bye….for now.Windmills!Back to Boston!Bench!das a lot of parkingKiss & ride!DIRECTV?!Shelter!Oh this is OLD (is it still open?)Unhealthy amounts of pavement?!CAUTION: ACTIVE RAILROAD CROSSINGTowards Boston, but from the Marion Drive crossingAnd towards the yardKINGSTONBYE!!!Oh, the sense of desolation was real here…GATRA!!!GET ME OUTTA HERE!!!
The good: It’s a bigass parking sink off Route 3! It’s also pretty busy, by extension, being the closest Commuter Rail station to not just Plymouth, but also parts of Plympton, Carver, Wareham, and pretty much the entirity of Cape Cod. (this may, however, change when the New Bedford extension opens in about 3 weeks)
The bad: Really, my main gripes here come down to three things: Land use sucks massively, and bus connections are just bad. Lastly, WHY IS THIS THE STATION, WHEN THEY HAD A PERFECTLY FUCKING USABLE STATION IN DOWNTOWN KINGSTON OFF ROUTE 3A/SUMMER STREET?! RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH
Nearby points of interest: It’s an industrial park. Unless you want to walk for half an hour to the Kingston Collection, there’s nothing.
Whitman is yet another bogstandard Commuter Rail station on the Kingston Line, and I do not have any creative introductions to give for this one. Here we go.
Signage!
Yep. It’s your standard Kingston Line station. Yellow signage? Mhm. Wastebaskets, benches, shelter are all present too, as is a lot of parking. This time, though, it’s split between TWO lots! WOAH! Now, unlike Hanson or Abington, there surprising is no microtransit connection here. However, in terms of cool things, you DO have a railroad turntable. But, since it was covered in snow, I couldn’t get any good pictures. The area is semi-rural as well, as the town proper is a mile away and I wasn’t going to walk it. While I was here, though, I actually got to witness an equipment move heading out to Kingston, so that was cool! The area’s largely pretty quiet though, given there’s not much going on. There is, however, a reminder here of a horrific and tragic incident that happened on May 30th, 2023. For those that are easily bothered by things like this, I won’t go into much detail about it. However, that aside, even though it’s a couple years after the fact, my condolences go out to those directly and indirectly affected by the incident both in the community, and onboard the train in question. I’ll also leave a reminder that it is REALLY important to be vigilant around railroad crossings and be aware of any oncoming trains, as trains CANNOT stop on a dime. Furthermore, there’s no shame in talking to someone or getting help as needed.
Bye!!!Parking!The other lot!Lightly used!AmenitiesThis again.I spy a pedestrian crossing…GRADE CROSSING!TURNTABLE!
The good: The turntable is kinda cool! It’s accessible as well, has usual amenities, all that fun stuff. I feel like a broken record.
The bad: The town is a little ways away but meh, whatever.
Nearby points of interest: The town center is a mile or so away. A decent walk. There’s a couple of shops near the station itself, though. Not many though.
Transit connections: Commuter Rail (Kingston)
Overall, yeah, yet another “I don’t have a lot to say here” station. It’s got a cool turntable though!
Ugh….another Kingston Line station?! Haven’t we done enough of them yet??? Yeah, sadly, I still have this and a few others to publish. So, here’s Hanson. If I sound bored writing these, that’s because I genuinely have little to remark.
Signage!
So, as with the other Kingston Line stations, it’s LITERALLY COPY-PASTED. Full level platform? Yep. Parking? Yep. Shelter? Yep. Yellow dot matrix sign? Mhm. Benches? Affirmative. There’s genuinely nothing special- wait, what’s that?
WOAH
THERE’S A STATION HOUSE THAT’S BOARDED UP?! HOLY SHIT! I am not joking when I say this is the most distinct thing out here. That is bad. But, hey, it’s something at least! There’s also a grade crossing on Main Street, a Dunks nearby, and even a bus connection! However, much like Abington, it’s microtransit. This time, it’s GATRA GO! WOAH! 😮
Bye!Away with you!Towards Braintree and Boston!And towards Kingston!ParkingWastebaskets!The Taunton Watershed!Yellow dot matrix signage!The Main St. grade crossingDUNKIES?!GET ME OUTTA HERE
The good: It’s your usual Kinston Line affair. Has normal amenities. Full accessibility. Not much to remark.
The bad: It would’ve been cool for the station house to be reactivated for passenger use.
Abington is a modest Commuter Rail station along the MBTA’s Kingston Line, located in, well, Abington. Yeah, I don’t have much to remark about it so this one’s gonna be a short one. Ok? Okay.
Signage!
Abington is a singular side platform, located off Centre Ave., in Abington. The area isn’t the worst, as both a convenience store and a Dunks exist nearby. One direction towards Centre Ave. brings you to Abington Center and a Walmart, while the other direction brings you to a Stop & Shop and a Target. The station itself is pretty standard with the usual yellow dot matrix signage, benches, and whatnot, along with a copious amount of parking (though, not to an extreme). As for bus connections, you surprisingly do have something, in the form of microtransit. That, of course, would be BAT’s Rockland Flex. Not much to remark on this one. Yeah, sorry.
Bye!BIG STINKY PURPLE TRAINdas a lot of parkingTowards Kingston and Plymouth!Towards Braintree and Boston!WHATGrade crossing!F40PH!!!!!!!
The good: It exists! It’s got a connection to the Rockland Flex!
The bad: Nothing egregious to note.
Nearby points of interest: Stop & Shop? Target? Yeah, I’m grasping for straws on this one.
Transit connections: Commuter Rail (Kingston) BAT (Rockland Flex)
Okay, okay. So, the MTA subway system isn’t the only one in NYC. NY actually has a second, interstate system operated by the Port Authority known as PATH. Surprisingly, though, the system is split about 50/50 with 6 of the 13 stations being in NYC (namely, the stations along 6th Ave., Christopher St., and World Trade Center), while the other 7 are in eastern New Jersey (primarily in Jersey City, but also as far out as Newark’s Penn Station and Hoboken). Now, this and the other 12 PATH stations may be a bit sketch for me to do given the Port Authority has a no photography rule in place, but here we go…
Signage!
So, this originally came to be when I suggested to Michael, Rome, and Metropolis that we should ride PATH for fun. Surprisingly, they agreed, and we went to the nearest PATH station. In this case, it was 9th Street. And, so, I commenced with the first PATH station review. Firstly, the entrance is actually a pretty long tunnel that’s inaccessible. Signage pointing to the station thankfully does exist at street level, and the entrance itself is pretty inconspicuous. Once inside the station, you have fare gates with OMNY- er, TAPP readers, and PATH ticketing machines. The station itself is relatively pretty clean, it clearly wasn’t trafficked as much as nearby West 4th St., and the platforms had standard amenities one would expect, including benches, trash bins, and even an LCD clock with the next train in each direction (in this case, towards 33rd St./Herald Sq., and towards World Trade Center, as Hoboken was closed). There was even an info board in the tunnel as well that even had the Hudson-Bergen Light Rail! (stay tuned!). Overall, not bad for an introductory entry into a new system! Yay! One other fun fact, this is also the least-used PATH station as well!
Wayfinding!Looking up 6th Ave. a littleThe street outside the station entrancePretty inconspicuous, to be honest.LCD signage!THE STAIRS AND TUNNELInfo board with NJ TRANSIT?!Fare control!WEEWOO WEEWOO FBI OPEN UP THIS IS AN ILLEGAL PICTURE!Looking towards Herald Square!NEIN.Platform shot!
The good: It’s pretty well kept, and can serve both as a local alternative to the MTA subway (uptown) or to NJT buses (towards NJ). It’s also got the standard amenities you’d expect, and is actually very well lit. The station also has distinct character with the more low-key entrance.
The bad: The hole in the wall style of entrance can be a bit hard to find amid the amounts of signage for other businesses found in the area. Also, it’s not an accessible station. Of course, I’d also mention West 4th being close by, but it’s also not an MTA station so I can’t complain about that. My biggest gripes come down to inaccessibility primarily. Also, the platforms can get pretty easily crowded.
Nearby points of interest: You have a library nearby, Washington Square Park, even the Stonewall Inn if you walk a little (this is the closest PATH stations to all of these places). This is also the closest PATH station to NYU, as well.
Transit connections: PATH (Blue/HOB-33, Orange/JSQ-33) MTA bus (M8, M55)
Overall, not bad for a first PATH station. It’s nice for what it is, though inaccessibility is annoying. But, I guess that also means no piss-scented elevators! Anyways-
*hears police sirens getting closer*
Oh shit, Port Authority transit police is after me, aren’t they… FUCK.
Stillwell Terminal, Stillwell Terminal, Stillwell Terminal… Well, this station manages to both be useful AND a rather season-dependent station. I mean, it’s no slouch for ridership during the colder months, but I’m making a safe presumption that even during warmer months, it’s busy here due to crowds gong to Luna Park and the beach. Oh yeah, did I mention there’s also a minor league stadium and an aquarium nearby too?
I forgot a pic of the station signage, so this will have to suffice.
Now, we have a lot to unpack here, so let’s look at the history of this station. I’ll be giving the abridged version, so it’s not a full in-depth overview. So, here we go. The terminal was formally opened in 1919, and became the terminus of the the BMT’s (then Brooklyn Rapid Transit Co./BRT’s) West End (today’s D line), Sea Beach (N Line), and Brighton (Q Line) lines. The opening of the Brighton extension specifically marked the formal opening of the terminal, however it officially wasn’t official until the BMT’s Culver Line (now the F and FX lines) was opened into here. Also as a result of the Culver extension here, the special fare to access here was killed, making the area considerably more affordable to reach. Eventually, the BMT’s Culver Line was handed over to the IND, which then operated its D line over it (later, presumably in the MTA years, the F would then be sent down the Culver elevated, with the D then being sent down the ex-BMT West End elevated). Unfortunately, the station would quickly fall apart, and in the 2000s, the MTA stepped in, evicted everyone for renovations, and spent almost 4 years renovating the station. These renovations also made the station accessible with elevators and ramps to each platform. Neat!
The historic terminal…
Coney Island has four island platforms and 8 tracks, one for each line that runs through. You have the D to Norwood via the West End, the F to Jamaica via the Culver elevated, the N to Astoria via Sea Beach/Gravesend, and the Q to the East Side via Brighton. All the platforms also have the standard amenities: countdown clocks, benches, signage, that stuff. As stated in the intro, ramps and elevators both exist, making the station fully accessible. There’s also restrooms, but I would probably be traumatized if I looked. There’s even a Dunkies here! Neat! Also interestingly, this station also has a busway. Hell, there’s even a customer service center here as well! Also, the roofing here is all solar panels, and it was the first station on the whole system to be solar-powered. Cool! 😀
….a B92, yet this one was signed for “D TRAIN BAY 50 ST.”????? I hope I’m misremembering the route number because Google suggests that’s a G line shuttle routeThe concourseVery open. Not overbuilt in the summer, though!I spy a busway…Ramps!Oh no.Looks mildly sketchThis is an uptown F local train.The platform!
The good: It’s pretty nice in how it looks, and is very distinct! It’s also an important station in terms of usefulness and for how important it is to the community at large! Furthermore, it’s the closest station to a pretty major tourist attraction as well. I mean, it’s no Times Square or Penn Station, but it’s no 96th/Lexington either. I actually genuinely like this station. Not because of the station itself (although it is cool in appearance) but because of what’s around it. There’s also restrooms, I guess… But hey, a customer service booth exists!
The bad: The ramps can be annoying to navigate if you need accessibility, and good luck if the elevators shit themselves. I’m also scared to think of what the bathrooms look like.
Nearby points of interest: C’mon, this should be obvious. But nah, to specify: Luna Park @ Coney Island, Coney Island Beach, and Maimonides Park, where the Brooklyn Cyclones play (repping minor league baseball, woohoo!). NYU’s baseball team also plays here, as does Brooklyn FC. There’s also the New York Aquarium, but that has a station considerably closer (though, stops ARE very close together, so I may as well mention it anyways). There’s also a skating rink and the Ford Amphitheater as well. Also, Nathan’s Hot Dogs, and you can get Coney Island dogs here, (of which, RI’s famed NY system weiners are derived from), and there’s also the Wonder Wheel.
Transit connections: 6th Ave. Lines (D, F, FX) Broadway Lines (N, Q) MTA bus (B36, B64, B68, B74, B82)
Overall, this station’s an important one, one of the most famous (I’m not even sure I can do it fair justice!), and is very iconic. It’s also one of the most-used stations by the tourist population, as well.
Rating: 7/10
A little liminal!This is actually kinda nice, despite it being the middle of winter.
