Except for a short portion in Milton, it lies entirely within Boston, progressing in a southwesterly trajectory, passing through the neighborhoods of Dorchester, Mattapan and Hyde Park. It sees service roughly every half hour during rush hours and approximately every hour or less at other times, though with no night service. Weekend service began on November 29, 2014.〔〔 Most trains reverse direction at the south end at Readville, but a few continue onto the Franklin Line. From the 1980s until 2012, the Fairmount Line had only five stations - three plus the two termini (South Station and Readville); however, four more stations are being added to the line between 2012 and 2015. The first of these, Talbot Ave, opened on November 12, 2012, followed by Newmarket and Four Corners/Geneva on July 1, 2013. Due to neighborhood opposition over its design and location, Blue Hill Avenue station has been delayed until December 2017.〔 All stations on the line are fully handicapped accessible. The corridor currently serves mostly low-income and working-class communities.〔(Fairmount/Indigo Line Coalition Comments on Fare Increase, 6/29/2006 )〕 ==History== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Fairmount Line」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
