History

The original station was designed by Joseph M. Wilson and built in 1869 by the Pennsylvania Railroad. It was demolished in 1963, and replaced by a mid-20th Century mock-colonial style structure. The former freight house on the south side of the tracks, which dates back to 1870, is currently a local restaurant.[3]

The interlocking tower was placed in service on August 11, 1895 but suffered a fire in 1994 and its duties were transferred to Paoli Tower.[4][5][6]

The original substation constructed by the Pennsylvania Railroad in 1913–1915 at the station was part of a project to electrify the line between Broad Street Station in Philadelphia and Paoli Station and was the first catenary electrification project done by the Pennsylvania Railroad.[7][8] The substation has since been relegated to switching duties.[9] It was proposed in 2013 that this substation be replaced as part of a larger project, but that was rejected by local government.[9]

A train crash occurred at the station on May 18, 1951 injuring 63 and killing 8.[10] There is also an interlocking tower and an interlocking at this station.[11]
