Walnut Street station is a SEPTA Metro D stop in Upper Darby Township, Pennsylvania. It is officially located at Garrett Road and Walnut Street, but Bywood Avenue is also included as it parallels the north side of the line. The station serves both the D1 and D2, and only local service is provided on both lines. The station contains two platforms with plexiglass bus-type shelters on both sides of the tracks, both of which are at the far end of each platform.
