Service to T.F. Green was originally added to the Providence/Stoughton line in December, 2010.

The Rhode Island Department of Transportation (RIDOT) and the MBTA have been working together on Boston to Providence commuter rail service since 1988, and in 2010 entered into agreement to provide service south of Providence via the InterLink facility.

The partnership has proven beneficial to both agencies, as RIDOT has gained access to regional transportation to and from Boston, and the MBTA has received much-needed capital improvements, including the Pawtucket layover facility, bi-level coaches and other maintenance upgrades along the Providence/Stoughton line.
