Ah, Butler! Well, I’ve never had to be admitted to Butler, but I know a couple of people who had to be admitted, as recent as last week actually-

Oh, not that Butler? You mean it’s a street in Dorchester? Oh, well shit. Uhh, here, I guess.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So, for once we have an ISLAND platform! Woooo, something new! It’s sheltered too with a bench! YAY!!!! FINALLY BOTH SIDES GET A BENCH!!! There’s also a mini-high, so there’s that as well. Overall, there’s still not a lot to it. There’s parking! And now, to walk to Cedar Grove!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The good: It’s the same as usual, quiet, and it also has parking!

The bad: Left-hand boarding, and you have to walk to the front of the train awkwardly to pay.

Nearby points of interest: Not a lot here, sadly.

Transit connections:
Mattapan Line

Overall, meh, nothing to really say about this station either. At least it’s alright! Onwards to Cedar Grove!
