80th Street–Eastwick station
SEPTA trolley terminal station in Philadelphia
80th Street – Eastwick Loop, also known as Island Road & Eastwick Avenue [1] or Eastwick Loop, is a SEPTA trolley terminal station in Philadelphia. It is the western terminus of the SEPTA Subway–Surface Route 36 trolley and is located at Island Avenue near its former intersection with Eastwick Avenue near Interstate 95 in the Eastwick neighborhood of Southwest Philadelphia. The Eastwick station of the SEPTA Regional Rail Airport Line, which serves Philadelphia International Airport, is within walking distance of the station. North of Eastwick Loop, the trolleys travel in an unpaved median parallel to Island Avenue until entering the street at Buist Avenue.
Until April 25, 1975, Route 36 trolleys would continue west along what was called Eastwick Avenue out to 88th Street, where a single counterclockwise loop built in the swamplands. This was originally the routing or former Subway Surface Streetcar Trolley Route 37, which was merged into Route 36 on November 6, 1955.
