East Lansdowne		There was a freight station on the NW corner of East Baltimore and South Union Avenues at GPS: 39.939740, -75.265414.
Eddystone (Woodlyn) (Fairview)		This station sat at the northeast corner of Fairview Road and the grade crossing (GPS: 39.871322,-75.341492). The station was torn down in Feb. 1973. The Baldwin Locomotive plant was nearby. The station had an unusual S.E. corner and a small wood building sat directly behind it (north). It was later called Eddystone Station by the B&O, but it is marked as Woodlyn on the 1909 maps.
Eddystone (Woodlyn) (Fairview)		This freight station was on the NE side of Fairview Raod on the SE side of the tracks across from the passenger station.
Eddystone		The old station was on the west side of Saville Street, just south of 7th Street. It was on the south side of the tracks (GPS: 39.85746,-75.341442). It was likely replaced in later years with the smaller shelter that is still standing there. The PRR freight station was on the east side of Saville Street on a siding track which is now gone (GPS: 39.857563,-75.340873).
Eddystone (Baldwin)		There was a passenger station on the west side of the tracks behind where Baldwin Tower office building is today at GPS: 39.863895, -75.336000. The station served the Baldwin Locomotive Works and it is shown on the 1917 Sanborn map (of Chester).
Eddystone		There was a P&R freight station just a few feet due south of the PRR station (on a spur track which ended here, tracks now gone) (GPS: 39.85713,-75.341417). This freight station may have also served the Philadelphia & Chester interurban line as those tracks ran on the north side of the building, while the P&R tracks ran up along the south side.
Elwyn (Greenwood)		This station was at the same location as the current SEPTA platform on Elwyn Road (GPS: 39.907839,-75.41191). The station originally served the Pennsylvania Training School. The PRR renamed the station Elwyn from Greenwood in 1880.

Fernwood-Yeadon		This station was just east of Church Lane (39.939778,-75.255919). A station is shown here as early as 1870 when the line was the West Chester & Philadelphia RR and the station was known only as "Fernwood." There was also a freight station just to the east of the passenger station.
Fernwood		This was one of the original stations on the P&DC RR. It was only a flag stop, so there was likely only a platform or passenger shelter here.
First Regiment Range Station		This station, located in Tinicum Township and shown on the 1909 county map, served the First Regiment Rifle Range which was a piece of land bordered by Gun Creek on the west, Darby Creek on the north, Bow Creek on the east and the P&R tracks on the south. The depot was on the north side of the tracks, just west of Bow Creek. I believe this location is somewhere near where the airport is today. Can someone provide an exact location?
Folsom		This station was between Folsom Avenue and Swarthmore Avenue on the north side of the tracks (GPS: 39.89104,-75.318106). There was also a freight station a few blocks west between Sycamore (formerly Maple) and Sylvania (formerly Forest) Avenues (GPS: 39.889978,-75.320407).
Foxcroft		This station was built in 1894 with the opening of the P&DC RR. It was in the vicinity of what is now North Sproul Road and Carli Drive around GPS: 39.995561, -75.355516. Although a station is shown here on some maps, it was only a flag stop and likely only had a platform or shelter.
Garrett Road		This station was built in 1894 with the opening of the P&DC RR. Although a station is shown here on some maps, it was only a flag stop and likely only had a platform or shelter.
Gladstone		This station was between the Clifton Heights station and Lansdowne on Walsh Road at approximately GPS: 39.932488, -75.282558.

Glenolden (Llanwellyn)		This station was on North Bonsall Avenue, just east of West Ashland Avenue (GPS: 39.903685,-75.290058). It was called Llanwellyn by the B&O. Built in the late 1800's this station was left vacant with the platforms and steps to them gone by 1943. A small concrete shelter big enough for one person stood on the other side of the tracks for the crossing guard who held a warning sign up on a pole in the middle of the street when trains passed by in the 1940s before gates were installed. The name "Llanwellyn," which was used by the railroad, was given to the location by Philadelphia lawyer Henry J. Scott in 1886. Scott named the new town, “Llanwellyn” which is Welsh for “spring has come.” It was intended to be a town of its own before eventually being incorporated into the town of Glenolden.
Grasslyn Station (Grassland) (Eagle Rd.)		This station was just west of West Eagle Road (GPS: 39.983874,-75.317432) in Haverford Township. It was built in 1894 with the opening of the P&DC RR. Some maps have the station name as "Grassland." Although most of the other stations on the line were flag stop and only platforms or shelters, there was a formal passenger station here, but it was soon abandoned and became a dwelling because of declining passenger revenue. Passenger service began in 1894 with seven daily trains in each direction and five on Sundays, but by 1905 it was down to one daily train due to the competing Philadelphia & West Chester Traction Company trolley line that paralleled the railroad. All passenger service was discontinued by 1908.
Greenwood		A Philadelphia & West Chester station is shown here on the 1870 map.
Holmes Station		This station was on the west corner of Amosland Road and Balitmore Avenue (GPS: 39.896009,-75.306607). Photo is from 1891. There was also a freight house on the north side of the tracks between Amosland Avenue and Ridley Avenue at GPS: 39.896841, -75.305405.
Hunt Station (The Hunt)		This station, established in 1894, was on hunt Road SE of Bryn Mawr Avenue at approximately GPS: 39.997901, -75.371756. Although a station is shown here on some maps, it was only a flag stop and likely only had a platform or shelter.
Knowlton
Lamokin		The original brick Lamokin passenger station was on the NW side of the tracks north of the end of Lamokin Street (formerly Howell Street) at GPS: 39.842237, -75.376040. Lamokin was the junction with the Chester Creek branch which connected the PRR Northeast Corridor line with Lenni and the West Chester and Octoraro branches. The Chester Creek branch was washed out in a 1970s hurricane and never was rebuilt.
Lamokin		In 1903 the station above was replaced by a new passenger station on the opposite side of the tracks. It was on the SE side of the tracks between Lamokin Street and Pennell Street at GPS:
LAMOKIN		The station pictured for this listing is either a waiting shelter across from the brick station or a later waiting room after the larger station was demolished.
Lamokin		There was a freight station on the NW side of the tracks at Norris Street at GPS: 39.841360, -75.377802. This freight house was gone by 1917.
Lansdowne (Darby Road)		There was a freight station on the west side of South Lansdowne Avenue on the south side of the tracks (GPS: 39.9371,-75.272296). The original RR name for Lansdowne was "Darby Road Station."
Lazaretto (North Essington)		This is the original station that served the Lazaretto Quarrantine Hospital (the first such hospital in the U.S., opened in 1799). The illustration of the station is from 1856. The hospital closed in 1895 and from then on the stations that were subsequently built were known as North Essington.
Lenni		This station was on the NW side of Lenni Road (GPS: 39.894189,-75.448646). There was a freight station on the west side of Lungren Road (GPS: 39.893773,-75.444172).

Llandaff
Llanerch		The Philadelphia & Delaware County Railroad was built in 1888 from Newtown Square to the Philadelphia Wilmington Central RR in Fernwood. In 1894 became part of the Philadelphia and Baltimore Central RR (PRR). The station pictured was likely a P&BC era station. It was near the corner of West Park Road and Llanerch Avenue (39.969848,-75.299075). After it closed, it served as a post office and community gathering place. It was torn down in 1938.
Llanerch		This was the freight station which was just to the NW of the passenger station at approximately GPS: 39.970148, -75.299633. It stood until 1983 when it was demolished after suffering fire damage.
Llanwellyn		See listing above for Glenolden.
Marcus Hook		This station was on the west side of Market Street (PA452). (GPS: 39.821635,-75.419364)
Marcus Hook		This appears to be a later or temporary station.
Marcus Hook		There was a freight station on a spur track (now gone) between Market Street and Chruch Streets half way between East 10th and 12th Streets. There is a softball field and parking lot there today (2010) (GPS: 39.821305, -75.417315).
Marcus Hook		It's not clear if there ever was a Reading passenger station in Marcus Hook. There were plans to build one, but then the railroad did not follow through. This may have been due to some legal entanglements with property rights. No Reading passenger station is shown on the 1905, 1912 or 1951 Sanborn maps.
Media		The old brick Media station, built in 1881, was in approximately the same location as the station that was built in 1960 and is still standing (GPS: 39.914116,-75.394699). There was a freight station just to the NW of the passenger station, also on the south side of the tracks. When the Central Division of the PW&B moved its headquarters into the station in 1882, the building was enlarged.

Morton		An early West Chester & Philadelphia RR station is shown here on the 1875 map. It was on the SE side of Morton Avenue SE of Main Street at 39.908452, -75.326969. It is marked as a "station, post office and store" on that map.
Mt. Alverno		Station was torn down in 1933. Peter and Harry Mile speculate as to the location of this station: We used to live near Mt. Alverno road, which ran near Chrome Run, a small creek in Middletown township in Pennsylvania. Where the creek ran into Chester Creek, near the end of Mt. Alverno Road, were the tracks of the Chester Creek branch of the PRR, which ran between Chester and Lenni Heights, where it joined the line running between Philadelphia and West Chester. Perhaps this was the location of that long vanished railroad station?
Newtown Square		These stations were on the west side of Newtown Street Road (Rt. 252) and now Winding Way. Photo also shows the freight station which is still standing (see listing in the "Existing Stations" section above).
Norwood		This station was on the NE side of Amosland Avenue (GPS: 39.891199,-75.302566).

Okeola		This station was between Collingdale and Llanwellyn.
Pembroke		This was one of the original stations on the P&DC RR in 1894. It was only a flag stop, so there was likely only a platform or passenger shelter here.
Pennelton Station		A Philadelphia & West Chester station is shown here on the 1870 map.
Philadelphia Yacht Club Station		Although the Darby Creek RDG station first served the PYC, the 1912 and 1923 maps show a separate station for the yacht club between the Darby Creek Station and Essington Station.
Primos		Probably built by the WC&P in the 1880s, this brick station sat at the southeast corner of Oak Avenue, sitting very close to the tracks and Oak Avenue (M.P. 8.1) (GPS: 39.92149,-75.298582). The station was about halfway between the Clifton (M.P.-7.5) and Secane (M.P.-8.8) stations. It was torn down in 1970s and replaced by a trailer type station.
Primos		There was a small freight station on the north side of the tracks east of the passenger station on Secane Road at GPS: 39.922365, -75.297205.
Prospect Park (MoorE STA.)		This was the original PW&B station and predated the station that still exists. A property owner named Moore donated the property for the original station. He did so, with the "condition" that the station should carry his "family" name for as long as it exists. It was formerly known as "Moore" Station. Today the existing station is known as Prospect Park/Moore Station. It had a population of 390 in 1895.

Ridley PARK		This station was on the southwest side of North Swarthmore Avenue on the northwest side of the tracks (GPS: 39.883102,-75.328773).
Rockdale		This station was on the east side of Mount Road on the north side of the tracks (GPS: 39.892308,-75.433084).
Sharon Hill		There was a freight station west of the passenger station at approximately GPS: 39.903453, -75.273651. There was also a small freight house on the south side of the tracks as well to the SE.
Simpsons		This station was built in 1872 when the Darby Improvement Line opened.
St. Davids		This station, built in 1891, was demolished in 1966 and replaced with the current structure. Also pictured is the first station (waiting room) at St. Davids.

Wayne		This station was moved 14 miles to Wayne from the Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia (held in 1876) and served as a flag stop there for several years before being moved to Strafford. The building was used as a place for people to buy catalogs for the Exposition and was called the Catalogue Building while at the Expo. The photo shows the station in Wayne before it was moved to Strafford. The station was likely built in 1873.
Wayne		There was a small one-story freight station here on the south side of Pennsylvania Avenue on the north side of the tracks at approximately GPS: 40.045624, -75.384508. This station is shown on the 1902-1914 Sanborn maps.
West Chester Turnpike (Llanerch)		This was one of the original stations on the P&DC RR in 1894. It was only a flag stop, so there was likely only a platform or passenger shelter here in the early days. Later a station was built by successor line P&BC and the name was changed to Llanerch (see listing for Llanerch above).
Williamson School		This station predated the one that is still standing and was in the same location off Schrencks Way near Station Drive, south of the baseball field on Williamson School property (GPS: 39.902872,-75.423406). There was a spur that split off the main track here and looped around the west side of the school grounds to a stone quarry that was north of where the old infirmary was.
Woodlyn		See listing for Eddystone above.
Wycombe		Not to be confused with the Wycombe in Bucks County. This was one of the original stations on the P&DC RR in 1894. It was at milepost 6.8 between Pembroke and Garrett Road. It was likely near the intersection of North Wycombe Avenue, East Marshall Road, and East Plumstead Avenue in the vicinity of GPS: 39.950928, -75.268101. It was only a flag stop, so there was likely only a platform or passenger shelter here.

Notes About Existing Stations... Chester Heights (PRR) - This was likely the first station here and then used as a freight station in later years. At some point it was moved up to the Camp Meeting grounds. Clifton-Aldan (PRR) - This is a substantial building built of "rubble-cut" green serpentine stone. It is in the style of a stone Victorian farmhouse, 2-1/2 stories high. This station was originally known just as Clifton. A new passenger shelter was built in 1890. Curtis Park (PRR) - Prior to 1948 the stop was known as "Academy Station" believed to have been named from the Holy Child Academy which was once located nearby. The station has been closed and boarded up but still stands (dividing Oak Avenue into two halves on either side of the railroad lines and one block East of Calcon Hook Road. The building there was built by or for the PRR when the name was changed as the Curtis Publishing Co. moved to town. The station officially opened at the end of Feb. 1949. Glen Mills (PRR) - This is an architectural gem--Queen Anne gothic style, red brick with black brick designs. It is believed to have been designed by Frank Furness, the world-class Philadelphia architect, who designed Philadelphia's Broad Street Station. Presently used by the West Chester RR as a scenic railroad. Lansdowne (PRR) - This station was designed by Frank Furness. It was badly damaged by fire a few years ago, but has been restored. The PRR "Keystone" Station sign, resplendent in Tuscan red and gold, gleams from the platform overhang. A new passenger shelter was built in 1890. Locksley (PRR) - This is more of a shelter rather than a station. Morton (PRR) - This is a "gothic cottage"-style station built of red brick with black brick detailing, three stories high. It was probably designed by Frank Furness, and is of similar style and vintage as the Glen Mills station. It was built in the final years of the West Chester & Philadelphia Railroad (which would merge into the PRR in 1881). It is extremely well preserved. About 50 feet west is a wooden freight shed, probably of the same vintage, still in use. Formerly known as "Morton-Rutledge." Moylan-Rose Valley (PRR) - This is a plain mid-19th century red-brick building with restrained architectural details. The original PRR Keystone station sign (said to be the longest station name sign in the PRR system) can be viewed on the north exterior wall of the Town House Restaurant in nearby Media. Here's an old photo. Newtown Square (PRR) - Apparently this is the only structure which survives from the Newtown Square branch of the PRR built in the 1890's. The line went through the back hills of Radnor and Haverford townships and was in partial operation until the 1970's. This freight shed was nearly swallowed by vegetation but was moved in May of 2000 to its new location at the old Drexel University Lodge Grounds. Its original location was on the west side of Newtown Street Road (Rt. 252) and now Winding Way. It is now the Newtown Square Penn Railroad Museum. Prospect Park (PRR) - A property owner named Moore donated the property for the original station. He did so, with the "condition" that the station should carry his "family" name for as long as it exists. It was formerly known as "MOORE" Station. Today it is known as Prospect Park/Moore Station. Secane (PRR) - This is another station of "rubble-cut" green serpentine stone, two stories high with a low-hipped roof. The station was built by the WC&P RR in 1871. The station used to be taller looking much like Clifton/Alden Station, but after a fire in the 1940's, the station was remodeled to its present form. Swarthmore (PRR) - The station is a cut-greystone Victorian "gothic cottage." The walls are "rubble-cut" stone on the gable ends and "square-cut" on the platform side. The windows are tall and narrow, framed in extraordinary stonework and topped by shallow gothic arches. The style appears to be an adaptation of "collegiate gothic" as the station is adjacent to Swarthmore College. The platform shelters are unusually long and substantial. New shelters were added in 1898. Wallingford (PRR) - This is a red-brick Victorian station, complete with platforms and balconies. The style suggests a Frank Furness design. Whitehall Station (P&C) - Used as Bryn Mawr Thrift Shop Offices. Originally part of the Philadelphia and Columbia Railroad, Whitehall Station dates from just before the Civil War, and the line was abandoned after 1870 when the PRR tracks were straightened in the 1870's. It is a splendid example of 1860's "Italianate" architecture. President Lincoln passed through here on the way to his inauguration in 1861, and his funeral train passed by here in 1865. Villanova (PRR) - This is a well-used station, surrounded by Villanova University. The station buildings are in good shape, and the residence is occupied. This stone station is in the same style as Haverford and Wynnewood. Williamson School (PRR) - A new passenger shelter was built in 1890.
