Maintenance work at Susquehanna-Dauphin
Also, beginning May 20 at 8:00 p.m. through the end of service on May 22, all northbound local trains will bypass Cecil B.

During the closures, customers can find alternate service at neighboring stations on the Broad Street and Market-Frankford Lines or on nearby bus routes.
