Trains run with relative infrequency from this station given the actual and potential ridership, 30 to 40 minutes apart in rush hour and 1 hour or longer apart off-peak. Center City Philadelphia is about a 40-minute travel time away by regional rail from here, though it is only 15 miles away.

Station layout

The station building, which is currently a trailer, is only open weekdays during the morning and early afternoon. Tickets can be purchased at the station during these times only.[2] SEPTA's station should not be confused with the station building on the abandoned Pennsylvania Railroad Schuylkill Branch, which is now the Schuylkill River Trail. This building, located a short distance away up Harry Street, is now a privately owned café and does not sell tickets.
