Bellevue station is an MBTA Commuter Rail station in West Roxbury, Massachusetts. Located in the Bellevue neighborhood, it serves the Needham Line. The station has a mini-high platform for accessibility.
The Boston and Providence Railroad opened its West Roxbury Branch from Tollgate to Dedham on July 14, 1849, with Central (later called Bellevue) one of three intermediate stops.[2][3] A new station building was constructed around 1891.[4]
