History

The route of the Penn Line was first operated in the mid-1800s. It was first operated as the Pennsylvania Line, then Conrail (later renamed to Penn Central). The MARC operation dates from 1983.[1]

In 2009, it was announced that approximately 400 parking spaces east of Pulaski Avenue will be added, but this is a temporary expansion until the 2013 redevelopment.[2]
