Substation formerly along the former PRR Port road/Columbia/Enola branch(s) now run by Norfolk Southern. Converted 138kV transmission power to 12kV traction power for the overhead catenary. Abandoned in 1981 after Conrail discontinued its electric freight operations and later scrapped. The site was partially paved over in 2000 to make way for a trucking outfit.
