Susan Holly Nichols posted two photos with the comment: "Wernersville PA. Drove by in June and did a U-turn to get photos of this beautiful depot. I don't know if it's used or not. Seemed rather lonely."
Brandon Bartolotta: Not for trains anymore, but it is home to the historical society. This was a stop on the Reading Company's Lebanon Valley Branch from Reading to Harrisburg. Now run by Norfolk Southern for freight only.
Steve Van Splinter: to add the pizza place is alive and well in the old freight depot next door , the depot is older than the station as this is the second station on that site.
