Sedgwick Station is a SEPTA Regional Rail station at 253 East Mount Pleasant Avenue between Sprague and Devon Streets, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. The old station building was built in 1882 with Furness & Evans as the architect, according to the Philadelphia Architects and Buildings project but was burned in an arson fire around 1980 and demolished. The current station facility consists of low level platforms with open shelters. A walkway under the tracks was sealed off due to criminal activity.

The station is in zone 2 on the SEPTA R7 Chestnut Hill East Line, on former Reading Railroad tracks, and is 8.9 track miles from Suburban Station. In 2004, this station saw 227 boardings on an average weekday.
