Eagles Parade Travel Advisory: No SEPTA at Downingtown, Amtrak Trains Full

DOWNINGTOWN, PA — Eagles fans in Downingtown heading to Philadelphia for the championship parade on February 14 will need to adjust their travel plans. SEPTA trains will not stop at Downingtown Station, and all morning Amtrak trains to the city are already booked. With limited parking around the station and strict permit regulations in nearby neighborhoods, officials recommend using rideshare services to avoid fines or towing. Business parking lots are reserved for customers and are not an option for parade attendees. Those still seeking transportation should check SEPTA's Eagles Parade Information Page for available stations and schedules.
