Fishers station is an abandoned railroad station in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. It is located adjacent to Logan Street. Built by the Reading Railroad, it later served SEPTA Regional Rail's R7 Chestnut Hill East Line. The station was closed in 1992 for the RailWorks project and not reopened due to low ridership. The station's shelters still stand, though the stairs to access them from street level and the underpass from one platform to another have been fenced off.
