Fairmount station is a subway station in the Francisville section of North Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It is served by SEPTA's B1 and the B3.[1] There are three separate platforms. The B3 and B1 northbound platforms connect inside the faregates, but the B1's southbound platform cannot be reached from the other two without exiting. Such a connection once existed; the sealed-off entrance can be seen at platform level heading south towards the end of the platform. Travelers wishing to switch between the B3 and the southbound B1 must connect at Broad-Girard. The B3's platform is shortened and can only accommodate short 2-car trains; the unused part of the platform is visible from passing trains and is covered in layers of graffiti. Fairmount station on the B3 has a full mezzanine concourse extending from Wallace Street to Ridge Avenue, now abandoned.
