Phoenixville station is a defunct commuter railroad station in the eponymous borough of Phoenixville, Chester County, Pennsylvania. Located at 4 Bridge Street in Phoenixville, station formerly served trains of SEPTA Regional Rail's Pottsville Line, a diesel line between Reading Terminal in Philadelphia and Pottsville station in Schuylkill County. The station consisted of a brick station depot and a singular side platform. The former depot currently serves as a restaurant and catering venue.^[4]^[5]

Phoenixville station was originally built by the Reading Railroad, and later served the SEPTA diesel service extending from the Norristown section of the Manayunk/Norristown Line to Pottsville. It was taken out of service in 1981, when SEPTA discontinued the diesel service. The station was also the terminus of the Pickering Valley Railroad to Eagle.
