great video! because the platform itself seems nearly complete, I wonder if they will begin using it only for Amtrak since those tracks have been put in already.
I kinda doubt it. There's no real way to get to the platform. There's technically nothing stopping the MBTA from using that side. The temporary platform uses those tracks. The parking lot is still a mess. We shall see.
I visited the station on Father's Day, June 16, 2024. There are signs of progress since this video was recorded but the "project" won't be completed before autumn. It's possible that the platform could see some limited operation sometime this summer.
Thanks for producing your videos Jonnie Alco, excellent work. It's too bad that there's only one cam there's so much more to view at that location.
I think it would be great if they extended the line to Springfield so people can connect with other services.

Great video! Thanks. What an over-engineered and inefficient nightmare.

I wonder if a high-speed rail could go through Worcester in the near future
