Surprisingly, the station has no services such as a coffee shop and there isn't very much nearby at all either. It has a single entrance and exit, which is also unusual. The station is in surprisingly good condition and repair. The station is an island platform and it is fully handicapped accessible. There are automated machines in the ticketing lobby for purchasing Charlie Tickets and adding value to Charlie Cards. There is an audible announcement of the next train to depart to Forest Hills and this is helpful in case you're close enough to run for it. There is also a visual board when you're on the platform. As mentioned, this is the terminus for the Orange Line. The next inbound station is Malden Center.

An island platform for the Orange located between Wellington and Oak Grove (which is the terminus). The station is handicap access with an elevator from the street level where the ticketing concourse is located up to the platform. The usual automated ticket vending machines and turnstiles. As it is an elevated station, it is a little bit exposed to the elements. There is cover from the wind. At street level there is parking, bus transfers and a spot to kiss-n-go if that's your thing. There is not much immediately nearby.

Overnight parking (up to 10 nights!) is permitted. The station is fully handicapped accessible from the parking garage area. There are audible and visual displays of the next trains in both directions. The ticketing lobby has a number of kiosks for purchasing a ticket or adding value to your CharlieCard.

Kids 11 and under rode for free, but you have to enter with them right in front of you, we didn't realize that until a worker told us, but we had already used our credit to pay for the kids. We were also told at the station that kids 12 and up have to pay as adults, unless they live in Boston and get a train card at their school.

This is the bus line in my town, it works. I wish it had better hours for nights and weekends but…read moreunfortunately that ain't happening I guess. In the mornings it runs alright an estimated 30 minute interval for inbound time for 'rush hour' and then hour during the day and a maybe 30-40 minute run time for outbound from Oak Grove. Same with into Stoneham.. I wish the times were better it's like I can either get to work wicked early or barely make it just in time. Same for times leaving Oak Grove.. you miss one you're waiting 45 minutes. The route could get condensed in some spots but other than that it's pretty direct and takes an alright average for me of 15 minutes. All and all, I like that Stoneham has the T bus in general. Thank you.

Reasons Why I Love The 109…read more 1. I can go from my house to Sullivan in 20-30 minutes. 50000 hours if I had to walk. 2. It runs pretty good at the peak of the day. 3. I strengthen my anger management skills every time I take the bus and I manage not to beat the shit out of everyone on it because my claustrophobia is kicking in. 4. I can sleep on my way to the station in the morning if I have to leave early. 5. I weigh over 300 pounds and another fatass always likes to sit next tome so I can feel skinny. 6. I can avoid the 108 that leaves Malden Center and always has a crystal meth conference or a heroin symposium on it.

So basically, I love the 109 when it runs well, and despise this bus when it inevitably lets me…read moredown and comes 20 minutes late. I reviewed its' psycho sister, the 104. This bus runs basically the same route, but stays on Broadway through Malden and takes Eastern Ave to Linden Square in Malden/Revere. I need to go to Linden all the time, so this bus is definitely useful for that. Plus, they added 2 per hour after 8pm on weekdays that end at Glendale Square. Yeah, I'd rather have it go to Linden Square, but still useful nonetheless, as sometimes I need to get to Everett Square. It's only ever REALLY late on Sundays, which is the MBTA's fault more than the actual route. I think it stays on time enough considering how many people take it.

The 430 is a gruff, manly beast…read more The 430 barrels through Malden & Saugus, sometimes stopping at the Square One Mall to drop off/pick up moody rebellious teens & elderly women. The 430 sometimes runs stop signs. The 430 cares not for your safety -- he only wants to feast on your fares & carry you in his belly. The 430 is early & has already left when you're needing to get somewhere on time, but is late when you've been waiting outside for half an hour & oh, he was supposed to come get me at 1:57, now he's fifteen minutes late & there's the 429, where the f*ck IS he? The 430 doesn't care, your feelings are meaningless. He'll get there when he feels like getting there. & you'll just have to wait, pansy. The 430 shalt not barrel on thy Sunday: for six days the 430 shall labor & do all his work, but the seventh day is the Sabbath of his Lord MBTA. The 430 makes me sad & sometimes gives me motion sickness. The 430 doesn't give a shit. He'll keep barrelin' on. & as long as he does, I'll have to ride him anytime I need/want to go to Saugus & don't feel like walking... OH WAIT I HAVE MY CAR HERE NOW! HAHA SCREW YOU, 430. You shall feast on my fares NO MORE! ....I mean, unless you want them... Sir. :( (Two stars because as Yelp says, "Meh. I've experienced better." Adding one star because I'm a little scared of him.)

Here today! Logan…read moreAirport employees have an option to park here and Academy Buses are contracted to shuttle them from Wonderland Station to Logan Airport. It's one of Massport bus station as well as a commuter train station. The reason I say MAYBE to recommending this business is sometimes you have no other options but to frequent this location. Logan Boston Airport contracted Academy Bus company after 2 other companies failed to provide Standard of Care Service and Failures To Meet EXPECTATIONS so they lost the contract. Being that 2 other companies lost work, the other bus companies DON'T like the "new kids" on the block so they make our jobs hard/frustrating. Allow me to explain the experiences we as "new kids" on the block encounter. The losers would not be courteous to us in the airport such as allow us to merge in, merge out, block us in while picking up or dropping off employees, blow, middle finger us and at Wonderland WE better behave ourselves otherwise they would report us to our company for the littlest misdeed. 99 percent of the time it's innocent/a misunderstanding but our company would get on us because Massport has the power to ban our company outta there which with enough documentation could cause Academy the contract. Let me tell the people on my platform something, EVERYTHING has a domino effect whether good or bad. One thing I know for sure, when Lady Karma comes to collect/pay out YA ASS BETTER BE LIVING RIGHT. Here's what happened to me, I keep saying I DON'T BE MAKING THESE THINGS UP! I was new on the shift assignment, I pulled up and the company "security guard/supervisor" was blocking the section we are allotted to pickup/drop off. Now because I'm customer service oriented, ESPECIALLY being an Elite Yelper/blogger/complainer/enthusiast/secret shopper, I'm not a hypocrite when it comes to handling my business and providing my customers with the best customer experience I can. It's raining this particular night and PAUL D with ACADEMY BUS was blocking where we drivers/face of the company need to do our job DROP and PICK simple. I promise on my deceased dog Braylon (oh how I miss my bestfriend), I didn't know he's been behaving this stupidly prior to my joining the company. I innocently asked him a very valid question "Paul, you know your in the way, we pickup here?" Paul: "I know, pull in behind me!" Just as we're talking, another one of our buses comes to drop off and because we know the Masstransit guys get irate with us, she innocently pulls in and leaves her tail swing out, she didn't want to pull up further because ITS NOT OUR DESIGNATED SECTION. As she's unloading, a Masstransport bus arrives WE'VE literally sandwiched him and his passengers in, those passengers who more than likely worked 2 jobs an average of 16 hour work day, wanna get off da dam bus! Here the "New Kids" on the preventing from SAFETY letting him SAFELY letting his passengers off the bus. HERE IS THE SITUATION I'm talking about! Paul goes over to the driver and gets on her because she should have pulled all the way up along side the curb to drop off. Never minding WE have been warned KEEP OUTTA Masstransport way! Same night, it starts raining and passengers are forced to load the buses in the rain because Paul D, in his ego refuses to move his van somewhere/anywhere else, ITS A BUS RAMP dude! Ok, from what Mike Smith (terminal manager) told me, the Government Contract required the company to hire Paul D to "Supervise the drivers", be "Security detail" and be available for the airport employees because the crime rate is HIGH at the Wonderland MBTA Station. When I'm staged waiting on my passengers, I stand at my bus door, twice I was harassed/solicited all while Paul D was sleeping in the van/in plane site! One night a stocky, highly intoxicated Colombian dude (probably American Most Wanted)with a backpack tried to solicit/ harassed me, an employee got his car broken another lady lost her keys and tried to wake Paul up and report the incident but she couldn't because Paul was catch up on his beauty sleep. The Colombian guy thought about my rejection and waited on my return, I wasn't standing outside on his return but was dropping off 3 ladies and he approached them as they were exiting my bus. Where was Paul D on each of these several incidents? Sleeping in the van/in the way/in the bus loading zone after working his other job, he was exhausted. I know Paul's job ego went and tattled on me because I ignored him because he's a bonafide IDIOT. How can I have an intelligent conversation with an idiot? How can someone that doesn't respect/do his own job/respect others ESPECIALLY an employee that makes the company money tell me my tie is crooked? Be respectful and you'll get respect. No I do not recommend this Boston Station because it's dangerous and Massachusetts does not have a concealed hand gun law, you better watch your surroundings here and don't look for Paul to assist. Here today! Gone tomorrow!

I use this station regularly, have grown up using either Boston or New York subways so I'm no novice and still somehow have trouble leaving without getting lost inside because the signs don't make sense and you keep ending up at the garage. Like all I want is a clear main entrance and exit which seems to be the one at the top with the restaurants but unfortunately adding the garage as connected, while very nice for those parking, makes this a very bizarrely "organized" station. Giving it good ratings because it's conveniently near some great restaurants seems unfair bc by that standard, boylston st is nice lol but it is clean
