Was pleasantly surprised to find that the oldest surviving passenger railroad station in the country is here in Philadelphia county - Shawmont station in Roxborough. Currently undergoing rehab to reopen this summer.Starpork t1_j7ddkxb wrote

The bridge will be closing for construction until 2025. That’s going to close MLK to everyone, as well as the SRT from the skatepark to the water works until then.

Will is just be the bridge that will close? I could see the rest of MLK still being open for out and back rides or local access for cars during the week.

I forget the timeline, but they're also closing Falls Bridge for 2 years for repairs soon. So you could still get on MLK at Sweetbriar, Montgomery, or Strawberry Mansion, but it's going to be a lot less useful.

Just the bridge. MLK is and will be open from sweetbriar to the West.
