Overbrook station is aSEPTA Regional Rail station on thePaoli/Thorndale Line, located near 63rd Street and City Line Avenue (US 1) in theOverbrook neighborhood ofPhiladelphia, Pennsylvania. It serves many of the residents of Overbrook Farms and the suburban neighborhoods across City Avenue in neighboringMontgomery County, as well asSaint Joseph's University andTalmudical Yeshiva of Philadelphia. Overbrook has two low-levelside platforms with pathways connecting the platforms to the inner tracks.

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]
