County Line (SEPTA Regional Rail station)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

County Line is an abandoned train station located on County Line Road near New Road in Upper Southampton, Pennsylvania, not far from the County Line Industrial Park. The station was a stop on the Reading Railroad's Newtown Line. It later became a part of SEPTA's R8 Newtown Line. The station, and all of those north of Fox Chase, was closed in February 1983, due to SEPTA’s desire for all-electric rail operations (electrification ends at the Fox Chase station). Service in the diesel-only territory north of Fox Chase was "temporarily suspended" at that time, and the County Line station still appears in publicly posted tariffs. There is little trace of the station today.
