Welcome to the Oxford Area Transit Services Web Site! OATS is working toward the realization of a functional and economic revitalization of the Pennsylvania Railroad's Octoraro Line (USRA Line 142) which runs through southern Chester County, Pennsylvania. Our ultimate goal is the economic revitalization of the region by attracting rail-serviced businesses and industries (and therefore jobs), along with the return of the Freight Line-supported Commuter Rail Passenger Service, to the region.
Feel free to investigate our site, leave a comment, question, or suggestion, or just a note to say 'Hi!'. If you are a resident of the region, please take a moment to complete our survey.
Check back with us often for updates, new items, news, and new links.
Happy St. Valentine's Day!
