**Angora station** is a [SEPTA](/source/SEPTA) [railway station](/source/Railway_station) in [Philadelphia](/source/Philadelphia).

Part of Cobbs Creek Parkway runs along 58th Street from Baltimore Avenue, over the railroad bridge, to nearby Hoffman Avenue. In 2013, this station saw 36 boardings and 37 alightings on an average weekday, making it SEPTA's least used regional rail station.[2]
