Waltham North is a former station on the Central Mass Branch, from 1965–1971 part of the MBTA Commuter Rail system, located on Lexington Street in north-central Waltham, Massachusetts. It was closed on November 26, 1971, when service on the Central Mass Branch was terminated due to poor track conditions and low ridership.[1] The station building is no longer extant, having been demolished at some point after the end of service on the branch.[2]
