Elwyn station is a SEPTA Regional Rail station in Media, Pennsylvania. It is the southern terminus of the SEPTA Media/Elwyn Line.
In 2013, this station saw 510 boardings and 496 alightings on an average weekday.[1] Service initially continued west to West Chester station, but was suspended due to poor track conditions. Plans by SEPTA to restore service as far west as Wawa station[2] have yet to be fulfilled.
In 2009, SEPTA added an additional 90 parking spaces to Elwyn station.[3]
Prior to being named Elwyn, the station was known as Greenwood.[4]
