Delanco is a double-tracked River LINE Station with two side platforms for the two-track line, connected by pedestrian grade-crossings at either end of the station’s platforms. These lead out to a small 50 space free parking lot along the Trenton-bound platform, this parking lot has a single roadway leading to angled parking spaces on each side and entrances at each end from Rhawn Street. Rhawn Street had no sidewalks when the station openeded but the building of the Cornerstone at Delanco apartment complex by the station (including affordable housing units) has reversed this with sidewalks being installed around 2021.
There is another entrance only from the southern grade-crossing to the surrounding residential community out to parallel Pennsylvania Avenue, across from the T-intersection with Spruce Street.
At the northern entrance from the parking lot are some decommissioned signals, and grade-crossing lights and signs. These have a interpretative panels on the “Evolution of a Grade Crossing” and “Signal Systems of the Pennsylvania Railroad.” This is part of a Line-wide exhibition on railroad history that was built with the River LINE.
