I could see the State of Delaware/Developers approaching Amtrak at some point in the future. IF the developer's plans come to fruition, I'm sure it would take serious $$$$. I would expect to see at a minimum some impact to the MH/Wil line.

Thanks for the link.

I noted that the author states that Claymont is served by Amtrak and Septa. Would the state of Delaware try to entice Amtrak to stop at Claymont when the new station is completed?

Thanks for the info. I did talk to someone at Septa's Parking Office and he re-confirmed MACTRAXX's comments. The Septa official said I could use cash or a check. The info on Septa's website regarding electronic parking meters at Exton is inaccurate, per my conversation with the Septa's Parking Offi...

Thanks for the reply. I've never noticed the electronic meters, last time I visited the station was in late August.

Good Morning:

Where are the electronic parking meters located at Exton for overnight parking? I've never noticed the meters before.

Thanks

I'm thinking about catching the Keystone at 10:10AM from Exton (Weekday). Will the lot be full by 9:45AM? If the lot is full, is there any close-by parking?

Suburban Philadelphia (Delaware County) Septa Bus In an extreme moment of cheapness, I spent $5.00 to travel to the Philly Airport, via the 111 (Septa Chadds Ford and Penn State) and the 108 (69th Street Terminal to Airport). It was at least 3 hours. Septa Norristown High Speed Line (Norristown to 6...

From past discussions, I had the impression that the new station would be south of Claymont near Edgemoor. The below article from 2016 provides some background information on the new station for those who didn't know (like me): https://www.delawareonline.com/story/news/2016/07/29/new-claymont-statio...

I'll answer my own question... 2.5 years later : ) I arrived at Perryville at 7:15am for the 8:35am to DC. The station lot was completely full. I parked at the overflow (at the church) lot without any problems. Look for the spaces marked MTA. On the return trip, I was on the last train (10:50P). I w...

I found my answer, Please disregard message

I'm confused. I'm looking at the Penn Line Timetable. Train 525 which leaves Perryville at 8:35am weekday contains a 'R' at the top of the column. Does 525 run everyday or only in inclement weather?

I'll answer my own question... For travel yesterday (6/7/17) on the 8:39am to DC, the lot was 90-95% full.

I've only parked at Martin on weekends. Is the lot filled to capacity on weekdays?

" In other places, such as along US 202, you'd never know there was ever a railroad there." In conjuction with the construction of Wegman's on 202, you can see some rusty railroad tracks (northbound 202) where the line would of crossed 202. The tracks are exposed due to some recent clearin...
