East Weymouth Station is a rail station on the MBTA Commuter Rail system in Weymouth, Massachusetts. The station, located at 1590 Commercial Street, is the fifth of ten along the MBTA's Greenbush Line, which provides service between Scituate and Boston. The line, which reopened on October 31, 2007, was part of the Old Colony Railroad, which had been abandoned since 1959. Like all other stations on the line, it consists of a single full length high level concrete platform. There is a shelter on the south end adjacent to the parking lot and drop off area. The parking lot is accessible from Commercial Street. There is also a walkway leading from the north end of the platform approximately 100 yards to Wharf Street. According to an MBTA study published in 2009, the station averages 420 inbound boardings on an average weekday.[1]
