Temple University during both morning and evening rush hours, as well as North Broad if you wanna see them go by without stopping.

2308 was on 6325 this morning.

This morning on my way into Temple, I noticed a number of SEPTA's Comet I cars at the Midvale Bus Depot. How long have they been there? I know that Midvale's backlot is often used as SEPTA's de facto repository for retired equipment, but it seems to me that it would be more trouble than its worth to...

I ride SEPTA 5 days a week to Temple University and from what I can tell, the Vs seem to be holding up pretty well and comfort wise are about the same as the IVs (neither of which hold a candle to the Bombers, especially the refurbished ones).

My best guess.........20 years from now they will be putting in a bike trail between Lansdale and Bethlehem once the last few remaining industries along that line dry up and the freight business cashes in their chips and goes home. I don't see that happening; none of the freight customers along tha...

Was the power for train number 6378 on the West Trenton Line this evening; cab car 2402 leading.
