* the city terminus of the southern and western routes of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) commuter rail system.
* a station stop on the Boston subway's Red Line.
* the eastern terminus of Phase 2 of the Silver Line, with direct service to all Logan Airport terminals and to the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center
* Boston's main inter-city bus terminal.

* public art, including a sculpture built of railroad car couplers and a model of the planet Jupiter, part of the Museum of Science's scale model of the solar system

Several MBTA commuter rail lines plus Amtrak's Downeaster service to Maine originate from North Station, about 1¼ miles (2 km) around the Boston peninsula from South Station. No direct rail link exists between the two stations, although MBTA bus subway connections exist; see MBTA Commuter Rail and North-South Rail Link.
