[edit]
Overbrook station in 1984

The current station building was constructed around 1860 on the inbound (eastbound) side. The station, platforms, and canopies were restored from 1999 to 2003 in a $9.1 million project. A smaller shelter serves westbound passengers.

Amtrak served Overbrook with some westboundKeystone Service trips until 1987.[4]

In 2009, the station was the site of a fire involving aBudd Silverliner II electric multiple unit catching fire due to a faulty heater.[5]
