SOUTH ATTLEBORO (MBTA STATION)

'South Attleboro' is the southernmost station in Massachusetts on the Providence/Stoughton Line of the MBTA Commuter Rail, and was the southernmost station on weekends, until June 29, 2006, when Rhode Island began funding weekend service to Providence. The station is located at the Newport Avenue overpass in the community of South Attleboro, part of Attleboro.
The station opened on June 20, 1990, before which the southernmost station in Massachusetts was Attleboro. There was no station at that spot before then; in fact, the area where the station is located in was once part of a Holiday Inn that was shut down to make way for the station. The former Holiday Inn is now a warehouse.
