The Eastwick Loop is the Western terminus of the SEPTA Subway-Surface Route 36 trolley at Island Road near the former 80th Street intersection in the Eastwick neighborhood of Southwest Philadelphia. Trolleys run from here to Center City Philadelphia. The station is near Island Avenue and I-95. The Eastwick Station of the SEPTA Regional Rail Line to Philadelphia International Airport is within walking distance of the station. Prior to the Eastwick Loop, the trolleys have their own right of way for a short period in the middle of Island Avenue where the tracks are not on a paved street and where you can see the wooden ties. There are a series of unnamed stations on that portion of the line.

A pair of Route 36 trolleys stop at the platform before crossing the Island Avenue frontage road into the loop.
