Emily Van VlackFebruary 9, 2018I like this station is centrally located. Can we re-paint the green ugly columns on the train platform?
New restrooms have been built just south of the existing ones. Cleaner and nicer - for now. Same cast of characters using them, though.
Jesse GillAugust 15, 2014Highly recommend listening to the train announcer on track 3. 10/10 would listen to him announcing which car is the quiet car again. Shhhhhhhhhh!
SEPTA's most centralized station, Suburban provides quick access to Penn Center, the Comcast Center, SEPTA's MFL and TRL routes at 15th St., the BSL at City Hall, and the Ben Franklin Parkway.
If you're confused how to get out, just ask. Otherwise you'll end up 4 blocks in the opposite direction of where you want to be.
SEPTA's website has been enabled for mobile devices. Thanks to the google API, you can now see "next to arrive" in real time from just about any of the SEPTA transit apps as well.
Originally the Pennsylvania Railroad ‘s Suburban Train Station, there are a variety of stores and eateries here. There’s also a Post Office here as well.
Patrick CasadyJuly 29, 2011If you're on an iPhone, the trainboard app is a great way to keep track of the regional rail trains and how late they are.- Emily Van VlackFebruary 9, 2018Suburban station was my least favorite station, now Jefferson is my least favorite with the closing of the Gallery
ISEPTAPHILLYFebruary 10, 2014On Tues, 2/11 #VisitPhilly will be handing out FREE Dunkin' Donuts coffee and a chance to win prizes - including hotel stays. Look for them starting at 7:30a on the Concourse Level.
If your wireless company doesn't have service down here, take a moment to connect to the complimentary Verizon or Xfinity wifi networks.
Senator Bob CaseyApril 25, 2014I'm pushing to renew an expired tax credit that has allowed Philadelphia region commuters to save nearly $1,000 annually on their taxes since 2009.
Passero's cafe in Suburban Station great coffee shop with many healthy options for breakfast and lunch! I love their Vanilla Steamers
Make sure you get your ticket or have cash b4 you get on the train....the conductors don't play that
Hang out at the Hudson News, checking out books while you wait for the train. If you like a book, buy it on Amazon and save loads of money.
Each station is color coded so you can easily tell which stop you are at. Surburban Station us painted a beautiful green.
Andrew FurmanJuly 23, 2019Very hot on the platform during the summer. Try to stand under one of the fans for some relief from the heat.
VisitBucksPANovember 29, 2010Bucks County is just a quick SEPTA train ride away. With everything from shopping and dining to tours and attractions, Bucks County is the perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of the city. Read more
When exiting from the BSL, be sure to exit anywhere but City Hall. Not only can it be a little scary but it smells like piss and you may even step in it!
You will be waiting a while if you dont take note of Detours and changes if they dont put a notice out....- Hang around by the Faber store as you wait for the train. Check out the books. If you like one, buy from Amazon to save lots of money.

ask a conductor which train it is you're getting on. though accidentally getting on the wrong train is a must-do at least once ...- Once you are out of the ticketed waiting area, there’s no place to sit except at a few of the restaurants.
Watch out very early morning and on weekends it becomes crackhead/homeless HQ
Todd ShaefferJune 1, 2014Regular Trans Passes can be used for free Regional Rails on Saturday and Sunday. That's pretty sweet.
Septa is a model of archaic inefficiencies. Make sure you leave time to wait in line to buy tickets from actual people. They removed the machines because they couldn't make them usable.
The platform will cold in the winter and hot in the summer. Stay up stairs as long as you can.- Senator Bob CaseyNovember 15, 2011the U.S. Department of Transportation is awarding SETPA two grants totaling $6.44 million for improvements to make the system cleaner and more reliable.
The bum reek in the men's room can be off the charts, especially on winter mornings.
Just tell us what you want and where you're going, it'll be easier than making us guess.
Ride the Regional Rail instead of the cumbersome, labor-intensive, lethal walk along the tracks!
your Comcast email address and password will get you access to the "xfinitywifi" network. Don't have one? Just use your friend's (or girlfriend's).- Patrick CasadyJuly 29, 2011If you have an iPhone, the trainboard app is good for keeping track of the trains and how late they are.
Use the dunkin donuts by the news stand instead of the one near the broad street line. The service and quality are exceptionally better!
Visit PhillyMarch 21, 2012Save a couple bucks by buying your ticket at the window rather than on the train.
Tony DeBiasiAugust 23, 2011If you miss the last train you better leave.... Youll be safer in the streets than locked down there with the crazies!
John RudaApril 11, 2013Headed to 30th St Station for Amtrak? No SEPTA ticket necessary to travel the 1 stop. Just show your Amtrak pass... $4 saved!
Try the mobile septa app as well on all your iDevices. It's fast!
Like everything else SEPTA you are going to be waiting. At least there is good pizza and smoothies in the station.
