Prior to PRSL shore services running to and from Lindenwold, what was the last terminal in Philly that hosted PRSL trains?
I ask this as the book "Commuter Railroads" by Patrick Doran, 1969, discussed PRSL operations of that time running to/fr Reading Terminal.
This book was written just PRIOR to PATCO starting up, but after changes were made to accomodate PATCO construction.
At that time the book stated there were 4 weekday RT Philly-AC runs (3 rush hour and 1 "reverse" rush hour run to/fr AC), the single rush hour trip to/fr Ocean City/Wildwood/Cape May, and 2 rush hour RT between Millville and Camden.
The book also stated that at that time weekend service was limited to 2 Philly-AC RTs. The book did not list the extra weekday RT between Philly and the Cape May branches that ran in the summer, nor the single weekend RT that also ran in the summer on the Cape May branches.
If the PRSL trains at that time ran to/fr Reading terminal how did they reach the terminal after crossing the Delair Bridge??
