69th Street 2002 (Part 1)

The first of a group of video clips all shot in SEPTA's suburban territory, here is part one of extensive coverage at 69th Street Terminal, with all routes, and most destinations of all routes covered.

The EL skreetching along the tracks is what put me to sleep the first half of my life growing up in Philly. I wish I could get a bed time ASMR of that sound.

Yep. They used to have them on a couple City and suburban division routes for a few years, usually those with less ridership like the 89 and 95.

Nice to see the busses before they put those stupid pointless bike racks on them, And if I'm not mistaken the MFL cars still had those God Awful dirty nasty stained up with who knows what cushioned seats, Glad they replaced them with stainless steel and eventually plastic seat inserts

[@trainman1971]

Actually, the bike racks get a lot of use.

[@thor-elfalcon3057]

Bike racks changed my rides. I could bike further and get back home faster (to beat curfew).
