Shelters

Moorestown Mall is an average bus station. There's nothing of note to see here. There are three bus shelters here. 

Bench

The shelters have benches. There are trash cans. Nothing revolutionary here. 

Bike rack

There are ramps and a bike rack. This is often not the case at a lot of mall bus stations, so this is actually a pleasant surprise

Points of Interest near Moorestown Mall station

Near Moorestown Mall station is Moorestown Mall itself. There's not much else nearby, some big box businesses but that's about it. From what I know Moorestown Mall is kind of dead. I need to revisit this mall, when I visited it, it was during Easter.

The station is located at 700 Station Avenue in Cornwells Heights, PA, a CDP located within Bensalem, PA.  The station is mainly served by SEPTA's Trenton line. Despite this, three trips of Amtrak's Keystone Service stop at the station every day: 640 (7:02 AM), 649 (3:51 PM), and 655 (7:40 PM). Cornwells Heights is currently the least used Amtrak station in the state of Pennsylvania.  From Station Avenue to the edge of the park and ride, this station is about half a mile long.  History Despite how it is today, Cornwells Heights was not nearly as important as it is now for much of its existence.

The station is located on Franklin Street, near the old Reading Train station History The old station, now a brewpub and transportation museum There had been passenger rail service at Reading since 1871, when the Wilmington and Northern trains started stopping at a station on front and Penn Streets.

No trains ran here ever since.  The BAR...
