**Eddystone station** is a station along the SEPTA Wilmington/Newark Line and Amtrak [Northeast Corridor](/source/Northeast_Corridor). Amtrak does not stop here; only SEPTA serves this station. [Eddystone](/source/Eddystone%2C_Pennsylvania) is a borough in [Delaware County](/source/Delaware_County%2C_Pennsylvania), [Pennsylvania](/source/Pennsylvania), [United States](/source/United_States).

The area of Eddystone is rather historic, home to the [Baldwin Locomotive Works](/source/Baldwin_Locomotive_Works), which built 100,000+ steam, diesel, and electric locomotives until the mid-1950s. The station, located at Industrial Highway ([PA 291](/source/Pennsylvania_Route_291)) & Saville Avenue, includes a 12-space parking lot. A second platform exists along Seventh Street west of Saville Avenue.

## Station layout

Eddystone has two low-level [side platforms](/source/Side_platform) with walkways connecting passengers to the inner tracks. [Amtrak](/source/Amtrak)'s [Northeast Corridor](/source/Northeast_Corridor) lines bypass the station via the inner tracks.
