I'll call this the why doesn't SEPTA thread just for fun, because i know that it's not going to happen... :D
Why doesn't SEPTA run straight thru service from Wilmington Deleware to Trenton New Jersey... This is a service that could be ran during peak hours during rush hour Mon-Friday, if the service happened to be a success then add weekend service as well. It would not have to be a whole fleet either. They could use three of the Bombairder train sets to operate this train which would operate underground @ 30th Street Station with Amtrak & New Jersey Transit. They have the extra platforms to make this happen, so i say why not...
The R2 which runs from Warminster could just operate to the top of 30th Street & terminate there or the airport..
For some reason i get a good feeling in my pinky toe that this service would be a success & the Bombardier sets would not have to worry about running @ slower speeds & would be utilized for their full potential.
Next Up SEPTA spent money to make modifications to North Philadelphia to attract more riders, they need to make a pathway that would lead directly to Broad Street to reach there & the Broad Street Line..
