Darby Transit Center is a SEPTA transit center located near 9th Street and Main Street in the borough of Darby, Pennsylvania.  Available Routes These are the routes that go to Darby Transit Center: T3 - 13th-Market to Yeadon and Darby Transit Center: Formerly known as the 13, this trolley route is one of SEPTA's subway surface trolleys. Most T3 trolleys go to Yeadon, with only a few per day going past that to Darby. There are plans to make the T3 much more frequent past Yeadon, but they require large amounts of trackwork to even make possible.  T4 - 13th-Market to Darby Transit Center: This is another subway-surface trolley, this one going directly to Darby via Woodland Avenue/Main Street. This generally runs about once every 5-10 minutes on paper, but the actual frequency is essentially random. This is the main route of tthe transit center.  113 - Claymont Transit Center to 69th Street Transit Center: This bus runs from 69th Street Transit Center ...

Eddystone is a SEPTA Regional Rail station located at East 7th Street and Saville Avenue in Eddystone, PA. This station is a flag stop for the Wilmington-Newark Line. Eddystone is by far the least used station on the Wilmington-Newark Line and for the entire SEPTA Regional Rail network as a whole. Eddystone is unsurprisingly also a flag stop.  History      Eddystone station was most likely built in the 1870s, named after the Eddystone Print Works, which relocated there from Philadelphia in 1876. Said print works were named after the Eddystone Lighthouse near Plymouth, UK. In the 1890s, Eddington became an incorporated borough. Saville Avenue near the station was named after the man who founded the borough's wife's maiden name, in honour of her.        The height of this station was in the early 1900s, when the famous Baldwin Locomotive Company was established and had a factory very close by. At its peak, this factory produced mill...

County Line station is a station on SEPTA's M Line. This station is unique for being both within Delaware and Montgomery counties. For a long time, this station had been closed down due to the wooden platforms rotting to the point of unusability, and recently reopened to absolutely no fanfare whatsoever. Tour Train     County Line is the definition of a micro-station. It's hilariously small. Bench and map   That's basically all the amenities you get at this station. You don't even get lights for when someone inevitably uses this station at nighttime!  Accessible boarding plate There's an accessible bridge plate at this station, which doesn't have an accessible entrance. Why?  One of the sheds Like I said, this station is incredibly small. The staircase between the platform and station is wooden and incredibly daunting. I nearly had a panic attack going up them.  Southbound s...

Creek Road is a station on SEPTA's D2 line. The station is located at the rail line's intersection with Creek Road. Creek Road is essentially a trail, making this one of the few SEPTA stations that's either directly in or next to a major park. It's very likely that this is the least used station on the D2, though I'm still calculating ridership for the line.  Tour Trolley Creek Road is a very small station, its platforms barely fit the trolleys themselves.   Bench Obviously this station isn't accessible since the Kawasaki K-Car trolleys themselves aren't. Even without that though, Creek Road would still be inaccessible.  Stairs A lengthy staircase is the only way down The entire northbound platform The northbound platform is longer than the southbound platform. On the other side of that platform there's a line map. There's supposed to also be a full system map but that's missing. Instead...
