Add the Glenside Train Station to the National Register of Historic Places!
The Issue
Glenside station is a SEPTA Regional Rail station along the SEPTA Main Line, located at the intersection of Easton Road and Glenside Avenue in Glenside, Pennsylvania. It is served by the Warminster Line and the Lansdale/Doylestown Line, both of which split at Carmel Junction immediately west of Glenside station. The station is not wheelchair accessible, but has a ticket office. The station opened sometime during the 19th century, and was electrified in 1931.
The Jenkintown-Wyncote and Elkins Park Stations are already listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP), and the Glenside Station should be on it as well. It is a historic station depot.
Other train stations in the SEPTA Regional Rail system that should be listed on the NRHP include, but not necessarily limited to:
- Willow Grove
- Rydal
- Noble
- Hatboro
- Doylestown
- North Hills
- Fort Washington
- Gwynedd Valley
- Penllyn
- Bethayers
- Philmont
- Langhorne
- Ivy Ridge
- Chester Transportation Center
