There is nothing wrong with 69th Street, it is a safe station, better then South Ferry
Yes the 69th Street Terminal is not like it was years ago, but I think it is one of the safest stations on the SEPTA system, even in the latter hours. Also, just passing through for a transfer raises the safety level as you will be pretty much in the areas that have good volume and in fact, 69th Street is one of the few places on the system that I always see a transit cop.
When boarding the MFSE at 30th Street, the third car from the front should put you right by the stairs for an easy egress to the stairs. Exiting the middle door of the subway car should put you right at the stairs. Only bad part with this is you will miss the opportunity to ride in the rail fan seat up front for that perfect view of the line and West Philly. Although, by the time you board, the seat would most likely be taken –it is a popular seat for all walks of life who ride the line, not just railfans.
