I'd like to see the timetable for when, or should I say if, the catenary will be replaced. Only SEPTA, boy I tell ya! Everybody else seems to, at least, want to expand. SEPTA's philosophy is quite the contrary. Pitiful!!!!it's truly amazing how much mass transit infrastucture that septa lets go to waste...
-trackless routes in the northeast and south philadelphia with tied off wires
-the 23
-the 56
-the city subway
-the r3
-the manayunk viaduct
-proposed cross county metro
-pcc cars practically given away to museums
-abandoned row to newtown, doylestown, quakertown and reading
-a desperately needed boulevard subway that will never be built
am i missing anything?
if this were seattle, phoenix, st. louis, etc. where mass transit was viewed as an asset, these would all be in play
septa is an embarrasment
