Die Bahnstrecke Boston–Fitchburg ist eine Eisenbahnstrecke in Massachusetts (Vereinigte Staaten). Sie ist 79,74 Kilometer lang und verbindet unter anderem die Städte Boston, Cambridge, Waltham, Concord, , Leominster und Fitchburg. Die normalspurige Strecke gehört der Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA), die den Personenverkehr auf ihr betreibt. Den Güterverkehr betreiben die Pan Am Railways zwischen Boston und Willows und westlich von Willows. (de) La Línea Fitchburg (en inglés: Fitchburg Line) es una de las doce líneas del Tren de Cercanías de Boston. La línea opera entre las estaciones y en , iniciando desde Boston, Massachusetts a Fitchburg, Massachusetts. (es) The Fitchburg Line is a branch of the MBTA Commuter Rail system which runs from Boston's North Station to Wachusett station in Fitchburg, Massachusetts. The line is along the tracks of the former Fitchburg Railroad, which was built across northern Massachusetts, United States, in the 1840s. Winter weekend service includes a specially equipped seasonal "ski train" to Wachusett Mountain . At 54 miles (87 km) long, the Fitchburg Line is the second-longest line in the system (and was the longest until the Providence/Stoughton Line's 2010 extension to T. F. Green Airport and later to Wickford Junction), and ranked as one of the worst lines in terms of on-time performance. The Fitchburg Line had the oldest infrastructure in the system, and commuter trains must share trackage with freight trains on the outer segment of the line. A $150 million project completed in 2017 included adding nine miles of double track, an extension to Wachusett, rebuilding two stations, and building a new layover yard. Only ten of the line's nineteen stations, including both terminals, are fully handicapped accessible – the lowest proportion of any MBTA Commuter Rail line. (en) |
