This Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) Federal-State Partnership Grant Program funded project will bring the Paoli/Thorndale Line signal system to a state of good repair. The project will replace existing signal infrastructure with a modern bidirectional signal system that requires less maintenance and is more resistant to disruptions. Upgrading all tracks with bidirectional signals will greatly improve operational flexibility, reduce congestion, and add resiliency. This project is a joint effort of SEPTA, Amtrak, and the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (PennDOT).
