Franklin Line

Franklin Line

The Franklin Line of the MBTA Commuter Rail runs from Boston's South Station in a southwesterly direction toward Franklin, Massachusetts. Most Franklin Line trains connect to the Providence/Stoughton Line at Readville though some weekday trains use the Fairmount Line to access South Station. Most weekday trains do not stop at Hyde Park or Plimptonville with no trains stopping at these stations on weekends. A few weekday trains originate and terminate at Norwood Central. Trains only serve Foxboro from Boston during special events at Gillette Stadium.

Famous quotes containing the words franklin and/or line:

    We are not certain, we are never certain. If we were we could reach some conclusions, and we could, at last, make others take us seriously.
    In this world nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.
    —Benjamin Franklin (1706–1790)

    Our job is now clear. All Americans must be prepared to make, on a 24 hour schedule, every war weapon possible and the war factory line will use men and materials which will bring, the war effort to every man, woman, and child in America. All one hundred thirty million of us will be needed to answer the sunrise stealth of the Sabbath Day Assassins.
    Lyndon Baines Johnson (1908–1973)
