Locksley (West Chester Railroad station)
Locksley is a train station located on Locksley Road in Thornbury Township, Pennsylvania. The station was a stop on the Pennsylvania Railroad's (PRR) West Chester Line. It later became a part of SEPTA's R3 West Chester line.
SEPTA discontinued regular passenger service in September 1986, due to deteriorating track conditions and Chester County's desire to expand facilities at Exton Station on SEPTA's Paoli/Thorndale Line. Service was restored by the West Chester Railroad (WCRR) in 1997, a privately owned and operated heritage railway that operates between Glen Mills and West Chester on weekends.
==History==
Locksley Station was established on May 24, 1890, on a petition from the residents of that locality. The name, according to a 1901 newspaper article, did not originate from the area, but was chosen by the superintendent of that division of the railroad from a volume of poems by Alfred, Lord Tennyson. The Locksley Station shelter has been restored; however, WCRR trains do not stop. A PRR historic manual block position-light signal stands near the station site. Remains of the Dyer Stone Quarry and Thorndale Mills are also visible from the station.
