Link Belt is a station along the SEPTA Lansdale/Doylestown Line. It is located at County Line Road & Walnut Street in Chalfont, Pennsylvania. It is located on the Montgomery County side of County Line Road, north of Pennsylvania Route 309, and sits next to the popular "Whistle Stop Park." In FY 2013, Link Belt station had a weekday average of 46 boardings and 66 alightings.[1]
The Link Belt stop was created by the Reading Railroad to service the Link Belt Company plant built across West Walnut Street from the rail line in 1952. Link-Belt is a crane manufacturer currently based in Lexington, Kentucky. On December 18, 2011, weekend service was discontinued at this station due to low ridership.
