context_page_description: Millbourne station is a rapid transit station on SEPTA's Market-Frankford Line, located adjacent east of an intersection between Millbourne Avenue and Wister Drive in Millbourne, Pennsylvania. It is one of two ground-level stops on the Market–Frankford Line, as well as one of two SEPTA rapid transit stations located outside the Philadelphia city limits. The station lies two blocks north of the line's namesake street.
context_section_description: Millbourne station is one of the original Market Street Elevated stations built by the Philadelphia Rapid Transit Company; the line opened for service on March 4, 1907 between 69th Street and 15th Street stations.
  The station was closed on April 23, 2007 for rehabilitation as part of a multi-phase reconstruction of the entire western Market Street Elevated. The renovated station included new elevators, lighting, and other infrastructure, as well as a new brick station house. Narrow wooden platforms were replaced by concrete platforms complete with ADA-accessible tactile warning strips. The station reopened on June 16, 2008.
  During the Market–Frankford's rush-hour skip-stop service pattern, Millbourne was served by "B" trains, with "A" trains bypassing the station. Following a successful pilot program where all trains made all stops, the skip-stop practice was discontinued on February 24, 2020.
