Eponymously named, Natick Center is close to the Natick city hall and the downtown shopping core of…read morethe city. The station is below grade and features a small parking lot of 70 or so spaces, operated by the City of Natick. The station is not handicapped accessible with significant accessibility barriers. It is located in Zone 4 of the MBTA system and at the moment, a one-way fare between here and South Station is $8.25. Natick Center is on the Framingham/Worcester Line, between Wellesley Square (inbound) and West Natick (outbound). It is about an hour from South Station to here. You can purchase a ticket onboard with cash, or use the mTicket app. Conductors will check tickets onboard. [Review 9992 overall, 1572 of 2018.]

I've been traveling out here at least one time a week on the commuter rail & the overall experience…read moreis good but these type of stations show how far they still have to go. This station is not equipped with any ramps or elevators for the handicap, the elderly or the commuters with bicycles is just unacceptable in this day & age. Even the stairs are quite old, rusty & narrow. Recently I experienced that on the outbound side there is no shelter from the elements except for a bridge. I just expect more from modern public transportation & standing here makes me feel like I traveled back into time. At least there are good local business, a library, a cozy common & a local commuter shuttle nearby. There are promises of improvements but they can not come fast enough. More people would use these facilities if they could just access them.

The metal staircases leading down to the tracks are very rusted out with huge holes here and there; Please be very vigilant about this as the stairs are very steep as well. At street level, there is a cab stand and local bus stop that accepts the Charlie Card (MWRTA.) Natick Cab station is about a 3 minute walk to the north (right next door to Pizza Plus,) and to the south is the downtown area with many amenities. Huge drawbacks are that there is very little to no car/bicycle parking and no handicap entry. There is much better (paid) parking at West Natick and the platform is at street level with ramps.

There is no indoor place at the station though. Not that I saw at least. So you are out of luck if you are like me and needed to use a bathroom. There is a Brazilian steak house place near the station I saw, but not sure if they were open or would allow me to use the restroom if not buying anything.

Parking is still the same at $4.00 so now when I forget to pay it will be a $25 ticket instead of a $5.00 ticket. Ouch. You also must pay within 20 mins and put in the "correct" parking number. I have to say I don't pay right away since I am not always sure the train is going to come so I wait and pay after I've boarded via my phone on the app. The app is much better and easier to use with its most recent updates. Public transportation - thumbs up for not having to drive into the city in traffic. Even with the $25.00 fee - if I forget, not that I plan on it since I have 2 reminder alarms, is still cheaper than paying parking in downtown Boston. Unless of course you find a cheap place and hoof it, NOT.

I love the MBTA! I enjoy taking public transportation to get me to work, explore new places, see…read morefriends etc... and I have taken the commuter rail starting from this origin station countless of times. Unfortunately, this is not my favorite station and I will explain why. While this station is located conveniently in the heart of Wellesley, navigating through the station itself can get very confusing. First and foremost, the two platforms can be hard to get to, and it's very hard to tell where you should be. There is a fence in the middle that prevents you from crossing the track, meaning you have to go up the massive flight of stairs and cross the overhead bridge to get to the other platform. This is not handicap accessible by any means, and means that if you mess up which train you need to be at, you're essentially cooked. Additionally, there is an inbound/outbound platform on each side, but the train often switches tracks without proper notification, so it's hard to tell where to be. For instance, in the morning I'll want to go to Worcester and will go on the outbound platform. However, in the evening I'll want South Station, and this train going inbound will arrive on the outbound platform. Everyone is confused and the signs just say "Track 1" or "Track 2". The track 2 sign is posted on the bridge, but on the side of the inbound platform, so it's hard to tell which track is which - I still couldn't tell you. Additionally, I've sometimes noticed that in the mornings there are bats that resunder this bridge, so it's pretty uncomfortable having to walk to the platform under the bridge.

A small glass booth exists as a waiting area for inbound. I did not see one for outbound trains. The station does have some handicapped accessibility but the website mentions "significant accessibility barriers." I did not see any wheelchair ramps for getting onto or off the trains. Located on the Framingham/Worcester line, Wellesley Square is between Natick Center (outbound) and Wellesley Hills (inbound). It is in Zone 3. Inbound and outbound, there are a total of 20 stops here during a single day. [Review 10132 overall, 1718 of 2018.]

This was a good reminder to use a long standing local business.

When you really need a ride, whatever you do --- DON'T CALL TOMMY NO-SHOW! I had to call a cab back from a doctors office at 4:05 PM. They said "45 minutes". Okay, so I waited, fair enough. At 5:20 we called them back, they said "we're backed up, but definitely we're still coming...". At 6:30 I had to give up, cause the sun was going down, I had no cell on me, the office was closed... in some pain at the time so miserable wandering ensued for a while until finally a friend was able to come pick me up at a nearby CVS. Home around 8:30 PM. Never again. Stay away from TOMMY NO-SHOW!! They'll let you down when it really counts. Taxis are obsolete anyway, what was I thinking.
