Just in time for SEPTA's latest pitch to Harrisburg for more money...
Yet another wire problem on the Reading trunk. This time, the #0213 (6:49am R2 Warminster to Center City) reportedly had its pantographs take down wires near Tabor Jct, resulting in a bus bridge between Fern Rock and Glenside. For most of the day, SEPTA only announced that the R2 Warminster, R3 West Trenton, and R5 Lansdale lines were running "reduced schedules", which really didn't mean a heck of a lot when people were trying to catch one of these trains...
Meanwhile, there were reports that a tresspasser was struck and killed along the NEC near Crum Lynne station in Ridley Thursday afternoon. We have been unable to confirm via the papers or internet, but the incident is believed to have occured at around 1:15pm. It appears that either Acela #2111 or SEPTA's #9238 may have been involved as those were the two trains that fit into the timeslot. If more details become available, we'll pass them along...
