Tonight, it's all aboard the Framingham-Worcester commuter line. Thousands take this train everyday, but few travel Chronicle style: jumping off at various stations to explore the neighborhoods along the route. We'll find an urban village, a legendary outdoor store, and the first local outpost of a national discounter. Plus, we'll check out one of the prettiest town commons in the Commonwealth.
