Location

The station consists of two platforms with shelters on the east side of Providence Road across from the end of South Street. A serpentinite stone building originally built in 1880 by the Pennsylvania Railroad^[4] serves as the station and ticket office, with an insurance office occupying the level at the parking lot.^[5] The station opened as Spring Hill, retaining that name until 1886.^[2] The previous name can still be found on the cornerstone of the building.
