Newtown (SEPTA station)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Newtown is an abandoned train station on Penn Street in Newtown, Pennsylvania. The station was the final stop on the Reading Railroad's Newtown Line. In the railroad's original plans, the line was to continue to points North, but this was not done. Newtown station was built in 1873 and torn down in 1960. A new shelter was constructed in 1976. It later became a part of SEPTA's R8 Newtown Line. The station, and all of those north of Fox Chase, was closed in 1983. The shelter was torn down in 2004.
