CSX Q114 blasts through Westborough Station at 40 mph. Excuse the camera shake...I had no tripod and knew that the bench would be steadier than my hands, six feet away from a fast-moving freight train! I was right - the wind hit hard!

  • Neat! A station with both high and low level stations, cool!

  • Yes, that's for wheelchair accessibility. When the Worcester Extension (lengthening the Framingham Line) was built in the mid-1990s, the designers decided it would be cheaper to build high-level platforms for disabled users that only served one door, rather than the whole station. Grafton, Westboro, Southboro (we also have a Northboro around here!), Ashland, and the new Framingham station all have the same layout - a one-door high level platform and a big steel overpass over the tracks.
