- This train will start on the Lowell branch of the MBTA commutter rail and
- somewhere around Wilmington, MA it goes to a branch line that goes to
- Lowell Junction, MA (Andover) the Ballardvale MBTA station is closest to
- Lowell Junction. From Andover, the train will go through Lawerance, MA,
- N. Andover, MA, Haverhill, MA, Plastow, NH, , ect.
- I forget what comes after Plastow.
