Bristol station is a
Penn Central station once the New York Central & Pennsylvania Railroads merged in 1968. Amtrak took over intercity railroad service in 1971, but Penn Central continued to serve commuters between Philadelphia and Trenton. Conrail took over commuter service in 1976, and turned the Trenton Line over to SEPTA Regional Rail
in 1983.
The station is in zone 4 on the
SEPTA Trenton Line, on the Amtrak Northeast Corridor and at one time was an Amtrak station as well.[6]
In 2004, this station saw 277 boardings on an average weekday. Amtrak does not stop at this station.
