It was located on ex-[[Pennsylvania Railroad]] [[Schuylkill Branch]] and served by SEPTA's [[Ivy Ridge Line]] commuter trains. The station stood at the corner of Dupont and High, a short distance from the ex-[[Reading Company]] station at [[Manayunk station|Manayunk]]. SEPTA suspended service beyond [[Cynwyd station (SEPTA)|Cynwyd]] on May 27, 1986, because of poor track conditions and concerns about the [[Manayunk Bridge]].<ref>{{cite web |title=A GENERAL CHRONOLOGY OF THE SUCCESSORS OF THE PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD COMPANY AND THEIR HISTORICAL CONTEXT: 1980-1989 |url=http://www.prrths.com/newprr_files/Hagley/PRR1980.pdf |publisher=Pennsylvania Railroad Technical and Historical Society |first=Christopher T. |last=Baer |date=April 2015}}</ref> The station has since been demolished.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://hiddencityphila.org/2014/07/starting-the-second-life-of-manayunk-icon/ | title=Starting The Second Life Of A Manayunk Icon | work=Hidden City Philadelphia | date=July 16, 2014 | accessdate=August 14, 2016 | author=Maule, Bradley}}</ref>
