Take the train from Morton Station
While joggers and cyclists can get around the suburbs, most residents depend on cars and trucks to get around. Commuters head to Morton Station, a historic train station that is now a part of the SEPTA Regional Railway, providing transport to Center City Philadelphia, about 12 miles away. Sprawling suburban landscapes and commercial amenities make Morton a worthy place to call home.
