Customers traveling TO Philadelphia:

Customers boarding from Atlantic City through Cherry Hill and traveling TO Pennsauken:

• Remain on the train to Pennsauken, the final stop.

Customers traveling from Pennsauken TO Philadelphia:

• Board any Camden-bound River LINE train, and transfer at WRTC for connecting service bus service to Philadelphia.

  • NOTE: Regular bus service from the WRTC to Philadelphia will operate to Philadelphia City Hall.

• At 30th Street Station, board the substitute bus outside the 30^th Street doors, under the portico. The bus departs nine minutes earlier than the normal train time and travels to Cherry Hill with a stop at WRTC. See njtransit.com for exact departure times.
• Pennsauken customers must exit at WRTC and transfer to a Trenton-bound River LINE train to complete their trip to the Pennsauken Transit Center Station. See njtransit.com for connections at WRTC between Atlantic City Line substitute buses and River LINE trains.
  • NOTE: Pennsauken customers may also use any regular NJ TRANSIT buses originating at Philadelphia City Hall to travel to WRTC for River LINE service.
