Pending 702's return, 710's arrival (which could be next month) would mean that the single Sl Vs are a 1/4 way complete.

Speculation is lack of qualified crew.

9359 was 20+ late out of Roberts. I had to cut my quick turn to University City.

SEPTA has not yet posted the service schedule for the Silverliner V's fro June 27-July 1, however, I think the runs they are on now are to be the runs they will stay on until the next timetable change...

I heard the voice of a Silverliner V consist on Train 705 to Trenton this morning. Sadly, I could not see any numbers or consist length from my vantage point.
Lines Frequented: SEPTA Trenton Line, West Trenton Line, Warminster Line; NJT Northeast Corridor Amtrak Northeast Corridor (PHL-NYP).

According to the website, five sets in service this week. Starts are 9597/9703/705/809/9216. However, I suspect the last one may be a fluke, since there's no w/b (s/b) turn for it. PLUS an off peak RT to Trenton.
