Delaware Valley College is a small station along the SEPTA Lansdale/Doylestown Line. It is located on the campus of Delaware Valley College, just off of U.S. Route 202. This stop is often referred to as "Del Val". It was originally named Farm School by the Reading Company until the 1960s, reflecting the college's original name of National Farm School. A small-scale improvement project is in the planning to help beautify the station; if approved, hanging flower baskets, new paint and directory signs would be added to the structure.
Famous quotes containing the words valley and/or college:
“To be seventy years old is like climbing the Alps. You reach a snow-crowned summit, and see behind you the deep valley stretching miles and miles away, and before you other summits higher and whiter, which you may have strength to climb, or may not. Then you sit down and meditate and wonder which it will be.”
—Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (1807–1882)
“Face your own ambivalence about letting go and you will be better able to help you children cope with their own feelings. The insight you gain through your own acceptance of change will bolster your confidence and make you a stronger college parent. The confidence you develop will be evident to your child, who will be able to move away from you without fear.”
—Norman Goddam (20th century)
