Manayunk and Manayunk East stations
Like Ivy Ridge, a second station served Manayunk (known as Manayunk East) by way of the Cynwyd Line until September 1986. While the current station was part of the ex-Reading Company, the station on the foot of the massive Pencoyd Viadcuct (northwest of the current station, and located on the corner of DuPont and High Streets) was part of the ex-Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) side of the line, and was cut back to its present terminus in Cynwyd.
