The woman, who was not immediately identified, was struck between the North Wales and Gwynedd Valley stations, the transit agency said.

The incident is under investigation and it wasn't immediately known why the woman was in the track area.

The incident prompted SEPTA to suspend service on the Regional Rail line between the Doylestown and Pennlyn stations for about two and a half hours while authorities responded to the scene.
