🚉 All aboard the Media/Wawa line. Two of Philly area's biggest brands are coming together as SEPTA and Wawa announced a naming rights deal in which the convenience store giant chain will get a station namesake and its name in a Regional Rail line.

This is the fifth naming rights for a station sold by SEPTA in the last 10 years. The first was AT&T Station at the Sports Complex terminus of the Broad Street line. Since then, that station has been renamed for NRG Energy while the former Market East station in Center City is now Jefferson Station and the former University City Regional Rail station in West Philadelphia is now the Penn Medicine Station.

The new Wawa Station is across from a recognizable Wawa Dairy facility that has been a big part of the convenience store chain's local ties for a century. “Wawa is thrilled to partner with SEPTA to relaunch the Media/Wawa Line and provide our friends and neighbors a convenient way to travel from Wawa, Pennsylvania, to Center City Philadelphia and all stops in between,” Wawa President and CEO Chris Gheysens said in the statement.
