If you decide to head into Boston, the MBTA Commuter Line is running on a Sunday schedule. So, for the most part, that means a train will run approximately every two hours. That goes for both the Winchester and Wedgemere train stations.
The last train leaves the Winchester Station at 9:26 p.m. and at the Wedgemere station two minutes later. The final train of the evening is scheduled to leave North Station and head to Winchester at 11:30 p.m., so be sure you don't stay out too late.
