Crum Lynne station is a station on the SEPTA Wilmington/Newark Line. Though the station sits along the Northeast Corridor, it is not served by any Amtrak intercity services. The station, located at Chester Pike (US 13) & West Ridley Avenue in Ridley Park, Pennsylvania, is actually northeast of the community the station is named for. It was named by a then-Pennsylvania Railroad vice president after Crumlin, Wales, where his mother was born. It includes a 14-space parking lot, and sheltered platforms on both West Ridley Avenue and Chester Pike.

Station layout
