Walnut–Locust is served by local trains, special "sport express" trains, and is the southern terminus for express trains, which reverse direction on tracks immediately south of the station. On the "sport express" line, the station is the last stop before its terminus at the AT&T station.

It is attached by the Center City Commuter Connection underground concourse to City Hall Station and PATCO Speedline's 12–13th & Locust Station and 15–16th & Locust Station. However, no free interchange is available to either of these stations.
