Brookline by train
Brookline by train
Brookline is served by 3 branches of the MBTA (the T) Green Line light rail.
Take the C line from Boston, and get off at one of the main stops in Brookline. Coolidge Corner is a great place to get off the train.
The D line, also accessible from many places downtown, will bring you to Brookline Village, a quaint area with many restaurants, though it isn't as big a draw for people who live outside the area.
The B line doesn't actually enter Brookline proper, but its Commonwealth Ave. stops are all within blocks of Brookline.
The D line is much faster with less stops than the B and C lines. If given the choice between one or the other, take the D line.
All MBTA trains are now $2.00 inbound or outbound ($1.70 with a plastic "Charlie Card").
If you are disabled, think carefully before taking the train into Brookline. Only a few Green Line stops are wheelchair-accessible (the MBTA website should have the most current accessibility information). During busier times of day wheelchair users should have little difficulty getting to Coolidge Corner, Washington Square, and Brookline Village on one of the newer Green Line trolleys with low floors; however many older-style cars with large steps up are still in use, especially during non-peak hours, and these are accessible only via hand-cranked wheelchair lift. The situation is better now than it was even just a few years ago, but the Green Line is still a long way from being universally accessible. The other rail lines in the MBTA, for the most part, have handicap access.
