SIGNAL NIGHTMARE ON RRD

KYW NewsRadio reported throughout the PM peak that all Regional Rail lines were running at least 30 minutes late due to signal problems. In what could be considered a major surprise, there's no mention of any delays on the SEPTA web site as of 6:20pm...

This marks the second time this week that signal problems have affected the RRD; earlier this week, the R1 Airport and R2 Wilmington lines were delayed due to major signal problems on the NEC between Philadelphia and Wilmington. At one point, R1 service was using a bus-bridge between 30 St and the Airport, then service was restored but only operating hourly.
