Prospect Park is a station along the SEPTA R2 line and Amtrak Northeast Corridor. Amtrak does not stop here, only SEPTA serves this station. The station, located at Lincoln and Maryland Avenues in Prospect Park, Pennsylvania, includes a 44-space parking lot.
Prospect Park Station was originally known as Moore Station, and was built by the Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington Railroad. According to the [http://www.west2k.com/pastations/pastations.htm Pennsylvania Railroad Stations, Past & Present] website, a property owner named Moore donated the property for this station. He did so, with the "condition" that the station should carry his family name for as long as it exists. Today it is also known as Prospect Park/Moore Station.
