There were some suggestions to rotate days and locations. But for now, we'll try a Thursday at Framingham again, especially before we get too deep into the summer when everyone will be away on vacation.  

When: Thursday, June 23, 2016
5 PM to whenever - but feel free to show up at 6 PM or 7 PM. We'll still be there!

Where: Deluxe Depot Diner, about 100 paces east of the MBTA Framingham train station.

The Deluxe Depot Diner is in the historic and beautiful HH Richardson-designed former Framingham train station built in 1884-1885. They did a great job renovating it and putting it back to constructive use.

For those of you who don't usually get off in Framingham there are lots of options for coming out for a bite or drinks and then continuing on your journey or backtracking a few stops. Take a look at the schedule and come up with a creative option to come visit!

Fellow blogger Miles recently did a very comprehensive review of Worcester's Union Station. He has a growing collection of MBTA station reviews, including a few of the Framingham-Worcester line stations. I've added a section to my "Helpful Information" page with links to all of his Framingham-Worcester line station reviews. Check it out, especially if you've never been to any of the stations. Interesting stuff!
