North Philadelphia is a rapid transit passenger rail station on SEPTA's Broad Street Line.^[1] It serves both the local line and the Broad-Ridge Spur.

The North Philadelphia BSL Station provides connections to two commuter rail stations, both of which are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. North Broad is a former Reading Railroad station that now serves the Lansdale/Doylestown Line and Manayunk/Norristown Line, while North Philadelphia (SEPTA station) (formerly known as Germantown Junction Station) is a former Pennsylvania Railroad station that serves both the Trenton and Chestnut Hill West Line commuter lines, as well as Amtrak's Northeast Regional and Keystone Services.
