![[RETIRED] 8017’s craziness on SEPTA’s Route G…](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/lNK8bheagOc/mqdefault.jpg)
I'm a train and I approve this video!!!
Timosha,: I too approve of this video.
I used to ride the 101 trolley back & forth to junior high school. The only times, that I rode it all the way to Media, was when I got called to jury duty, as an adult, and had to go to the courthouse in Media.
Your intro music is hilariously ironic do to most Septa rail equipment being of Japanese origin.
That's not irony, it's coincidence.
The Kawasaki cars were built in Japan in the 1980s so go figure

I like the horns on this trolley. If CTA put horns like these on its Skokie Swift L Cars the Skokie Residents would be freaking out and complaine endlessly.
Hahaha
@@NorthEastCoastRailfan These people in Skokie Illinois are very fussy and particular. At one time Skokie Residents objected to having 3rd rail on this line but later allowed the CTA to do so after noticing that CTA was having issues with wires breaking particularly in the winter months
@@NorthEastCoastRailfan It would be hilarious to see how these residents would react to these horns. That would be funny their reaction. They should try those horns on the Skokie Swift April 1st!
Nice!!!!
You're the best RUclipsr I ever know
Thank you, that means a lot to me! 😃
No problem!
I’ve noticed that an unusual amount of initial d fans love public transit
i been in 101 trolley as a kid
This ride sure sounds like you're riding in a subway!!!
The train ride sounds like we're in the subway.
Began watching, and was wondering what was up with the camera, given that the sides of the vehicle were rippling like waves.
Yeah, that camera wasn't very good. That's why I had to replace it recently.
Next Stop Middletown Road For Route 117 & I-95 Industrial Park
I was in room *101* in my school at *1* to 2nd grade, Then I am now in room _3 _*_0_*_ 9_
What's the last stop on this route
22:13 what exactly is the point of two interlockings going the same direction on the same track?
The first one is for if you're on the inbound track and you are to switch over to the outbound side, the second is for if you're on the outbound track and need to switch over to the single track segment. Note the signal placement for each.

I feel like I should know this, but I don’t. Is there an express trolley service on the 101/102?
The 101/102 trolleys do not run express services. All run local with request stops only.
North East Coast Railfan seems strange that it specifies a local service when leaving 69th. Throws me off when I hear that. Thanks for the help!
No problem!
Are there express trolleys/light Rail anywhere
Actually they do run express services it’s very limited only in the morning from 6 to 7Am and 3 to 4:30pm

The entire line should have been double tracked on private right-of-way!
Agreed, there are a lot of SEPTA lines that should be double tracked (I'm looking at you Regional Rail)
@@NorthEastCoastRailfan The street running is just as traditional here as it is in San Francisco CA!
If I'm not mistaken, these are eventually be replaced by low floor articulated lrv's soon
You're correct. SEPTA has said that they would replace the trolleys by LRVs, with additional planning to reduce frequency of stations. There were also plans for ticket machines like the River Line. However, it's unlikely that the money is there to replace the fleet right now. The scheduled date is 2024 for these changes.

@@NorthEastCoastRailfan In addition several stations will be renovated for ADA compliance.
North East Coast Railfan After Reading this, I don’t think these types of Trains would fit, to be honest and I don’t like that they are removing PCC II that’s a historic line , smh
The PCC II trolleys will only last so long in their current state. As much as I would hate to see them go, preserving an entire fleet of historic trolleys isn't very cost effective. I could see light rail cars on the 101/102/15 and not looking out of place, but not so much on the 10/11/13/34/36. They definitely should preserve one of them though.
@@DIVINE9950 They aren't.
How much are these so I can ride them?
The SEPTA base fare (cash) is 2.50. This allows you to ride all modes of transit except for Regional Rail, where your fare is determined by the distance. You can buy a SEPTA Key (4.95) and pay 2.00 a ride with discounted transfers at 1.00. If you are going for just a day, you can get an Independence Day pass for 13.00 and ride all modes of transportation, including Regional Rail free of extra charge.
Oh ok thanks.
No problem, feel free to ask questions on any video at any time!
@@NorthEastCoastRailfan Art some point they did raise the base fare to $2.75 year before last or in 2017 or 2018 but it ended up going back down to $2.50. I guess people were outraged about the fare keep going up each year and were losing riders. That's just my assumption but it is $2.50 currently.
@@hiltonlive32grnrngrCash has been 2.50 since it went up last. The last base fare increase was raising transfers from .75 to $1.
Currently this trolley route are running buses until further notice.
Rip
Joe Fagan: This is all due to the Pandemic which will last for the rest of our lives forever and ever and ever!
Thanks to Biden many lines throughout the USA will be abandoned forever and ever! The PANDEMIC will shut down all transit for good. Remote and Zoom business forever!!!!!
Joe Fagan: Is this due to the storms that were out in Philly recently or is this a permanent thing caused by the lifetime PANDEMIC which unfortunately won't ever end anytime!?
Joe Fagan: Now 1 year later I thought the trolleys would be running by now. Is COVID going to shut down indefinitely everything!?
From the rear out filming.... ? What is that.... ? Afraid to film in the front ?
I'd be in the way of the driver and passengers getting onto the trolley.
I’ll be sad when the k cars go I don’t like the new trolly redesign been riding the k cars as a kid
Me too. I'll miss the K-cars also but i really miss when the K-cars had the roll signs with the Helvetica font and the red & blue paint scheme from the 90s
JCW Network: I like those much older Brill built trolleys. Much more roomy and very interurban like. The only thing missing on those is air conditioning.
I think the video would have been better if you placed the camera out the front of the car
I would've, but if I did I would've gotten in the way of the driver and people getting on the trolley.
