Was pleasantly surprised to find that the oldest surviving passenger railroad station in the country is here in Philadelphia county - Shawmont station in Roxborough. Currently undergoing rehab to reopen this summer. Submitted by Odd-Emergency5839 t3_10uprjb on February 5, 2023 at 10:36 PM in philadelphia 83 comments 1,169
