Trevose station is a station along the SEPTA West Trenton Line to Ewing, New Jersey. It is located at Ridge and Boundbrook Avenues in Bensalem Township, Pennsylvania. The station has off-street parking and a handicapped-accessible platform, however SEPTA has recently announced that they've expanded the number of parking spaces to 219. In FY 2013, Trevose station had a weekday average of 283 boardings and 275 alightings.[2]

Depending on the source, Trevose station was originally built either in 1889 or 1893[3] by the Philadelphia & Reading Railroad. The former station house was torn down and replaced with a small shelter to protect commuters from the elements.
