Renaming stations, and putting people names on roads & bridges/tunnels has never made any sense to me, but in this case i'ds approve.... ;)

Please excuse me, but what does "i'ds" mean?

SEPTA was paid to do that by AT&T when they renamed Pattison.

I don't see any money changing hands on this deal.
I think they're going to do it at the same time they show the Biden Station in Wilmington in the timetables. What I'm wondering about is why it always has to be a railroad station? If politicians must rename things after each other, there are plenty of Federal prisons, and we'll never run out of names.
