The victim, identified only as a woman in her 50s, appears to have intentionally jumped in front of the northbound train, according to a SEPTA spokesperson.
Northbound trains were operating on a delay of about 10 minutes temporarily bypassed Erie Station, but service has since been restored with some residual delays.
