The "T" to the Beantown: Your Guide to Conquering Worcester to Boston (without a DeLorean)
Ah, Worcester to Boston. A tale as old as time (well, maybe not that old, but definitely pre-revolution). You, intrepid traveler, seek passage from the Woo (Worcester's cool-kid nickname, FYI) to the land of lobstah rolls and Fenway fanatics. But the question lingers... can you take the T on this epic voyage?
Hold onto your clam chowder, because the answer is a resounding YES! The MBTA, or Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (say that five times fast), has your back. Their trusty Commuter Rail whisks you from Worcester Union Station to Boston South Station in about 1 hour and 30 minutes. That's faster than a Dunkin' Donuts run on a sugar crash (although, maybe not quite as satisfying).
Tip: Don’t just scroll — pause and absorb.
