Overbrook station is a SEPTA Regional Rail station on the Paoli/Thorndale Line, located near 63rd Street and City Line Avenue (US 1) in the Overbrook neighborhood of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It serves many of the residents of Overbrook Farms and the suburban neighborhoods across City Avenue in neighboring Montgomery County, as well as Saint Joseph's University and Talmudical Yeshiva of Philadelphia. Overbrook has two low-level side platforms with pathways connecting the platforms to the inner tracks.
History
The current station building was constructed around 1860 on the inbound (eastbound) side. The station, platforms, and canopies were restored from 1999 to 2003 in a $9.1 million project. A smaller shelter serves westbound passengers.
Amtrak served Overbrook with some westbound Keystone Service trips until 1987.
In 2009, the station was the site of a fire involving a Budd Silverliner II electric multiple unit catching fire due to a faulty heater.
