As North Station is nowhere near as busy with long distance rail travel as South Station, I never noticed a clearly marked cab stand with taxis waiting at North Station. We are senior citizens and don't relish the idea of waiting very long for a cab after dark on a windblown street. Any suggestions or comments on how to get a cab quickly there for a trip to a Boston suburb?
I'm thinking what you may want to do is to go on line and look up a few Boston cab companies and see if they service North Station. Then save the number(s) in your cell phone to call them about 15 minutes before the train is to arrive. I'm a tad surprised to hear that you haven't seen taxis waiting there as I believe the Station also serves MBTA and has a T stop there as well. And isn't the arena for the Bruins and Celtics adjacent to the station???
