100 DAYS OF CENTRAL MASS FEATURES UNION STATION IN WORCESTER
Located in Washington Square in Worcester, Union Station is one of Worcester's great landmarks. Union Station was originally built in 1911 and abandoned in 1975. The rundown and neglected station was acquired and renovated by the Worcester Redevelopment Authority and opened back up in July of 2000. In 2006, an intercity and local bus terminal with 5 bus ports was added.

- Western terminus of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority's Framingham/Worcester commuter rail line, with inbound service to Back Bay and South Station in Boston
