What a great idea! Not a bad price either....leaves from North Station and takes you to Fitchburg. Free ride from there to Wachusett on a shuttle. $7.75 each way....that's cheap!

The article.

IIRC it said every weekend. Train leaves North Station at 8:35 and arrives at Fitchburg around 10. You'd be on the slopes around 10:30. Departs from mountain at 5:35 I think.

The selfish part of me is not thrilled with this. Just what Wachusett needs, more people on weekends. I do think it's a cool idea otherwise.

The selfish part of me doesn't mind, as they're there before my Bronze Century pass kicks in on the weekends.
