DeKalb Street station, formerly known as King Manor station, is a SEPTA rapid transit station in Bridgeport, Pennsylvania. It serves the Norristown High Speed Line (Route 100) and is located on Ford Street near DeKalb Street (U.S. Route 202), although SEPTA gives the address as Ford Street and Crooked Lane. All trains stop at DeKalb Street. The station lies 12.3 track miles (19.8 km) from 69th Street Terminal.
Originally named DeKalb Street station upon opening,[1] the name was changed to King Manor.[when?] SEPTA reverted to the station name on September 5, 2010.[2] The platform reflects the new name while the street sign retains the King Manor name.
