Does anyone know the last time a passenger train ran on the Newtown Square Branch and what the stops were? Thanks

There were three consecutive issues that covered the Newtown Square and Cardington Branches that were published in the 1990's. I don't have them handy to give you the volume, issue # and date. There was also a reprint that combined all three issues.

ThanksAbout 1938, a streamlined K-4 steam locomotive and passenger train was displayed on the team track at Garret Road. Also in the late 1930s, there were a few "Off The Beaten Path" excursions, some even had dinning cars!
