MBTA Intercity Rail

The MBTA Intercity Rail system serves as the intercity rail arm of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority's transportation coverage of Greater Boston in the United States. It is operated under contract by the Massachusetts Bay Intercity Railroad Company (MBIR) a joint partnership of Veolia Transportation, Bombardier Transportation, and Alternate Concepts, Inc. which is a Boston-based firm. The current operating contract expired in July 2013.

The system is the sixth-busiest commuter rail in the U.S., behind New York, Chicago, and Philadelphia area systems, and is tied for fifth-busiest with Philadelphia's SEPTA Regional Rail in terms of weekday ridership. The line's characteristic purple-trimmed coaches operate as far south as North Kingstown, Rhode Island, and as far north as Newburyport and as far west as Worcester, both in Massachusetts. Trains originate at two major terminals in Boston — South Station and North Station — both transportation hubs offering connections to Amtrak, local bus and subway lines. As of Q1 of 2013, daily weekday ridership was 127,500.
