MBTA Train & Bus Service
About
The MBTA, the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority, links Salem with Boston by commuter rail and bus. Commuter rail trains connect Salem to Boston’s North Station via both the Newburyport and Rockport lines, so riders heading into the city can use either line. Trains arrive at Salem Depot, and from there it is a walk to downtown Salem’s shopping, dining, attractions and waterfront, making the train a practical option for visitors.
Several MBTA bus routes also serve Salem. Route 450 and its 450W variant run between Salem and Wonderland or Haymarket in Boston, route 451 connects Salem to North Beverly, and routes 435 and 456 link Salem with Lynn. Route 455 runs between Salem and Revere Beach and is the listed bus option from Logan Airport. Riders should check current routes, since bus service to Salem has changed.
