An odd one yesterday while trolley-hunting on the 15 yesterday. 5352 was working that route (where everything else was streetcars). Also, 8086 on the 64 was seen, as well as 3400 on what I believe was the 3. (This bus turned around very quickly at FTC yesterday around 1 PM.)

I rode the 15 yesterday. They were short on trolley operators so 016 block was a bus, probably the one you saw. On the next pick the "protect" bus that usually sits at Richmond /Westmoreland will be eliminated. The driver is going to operate a trolley. If a bus is needed to put in service, they will pull from other lines.

Yesterday I saw something that I haven't seen since sometime in 1984 when I was 3 years old, along the 6 in West Oak Lane. Yesterday I saw something that I haven't seen since June of 1989 along the 23 in Germantown.

I saw 2 PCCs bunched up together along the 15(PCC IIs 2328 & 2334) apart by a 1/4 of an inch from each other eastbound @ Front & Girard Avenue.

Seldom do you see streetcars in revenue service bunched up against each other in one direction while on the surface.

You can rest assured while traveling along the 13 along Chester Avenue in West Philadelphia you'll see 2 or 3 cars right behind each other while traveling in one direction but on the 15 you'll probably never see this & while on the other lines, weather conditions, equipment, "wildcats" & traffic will dictate the end result.

I spotted 5802 on the 5 yesterday. This is the first time I ever saw a New Flyer ZFer on the Southern share of the 5.

On Friday I spotted 3431 on the 59 & rode 5349 on the 1. 5916 bypassed 5349 by about say 15 mph more while on the Roosevelt Boulevard(5916 as a 20 express to Parkwood Manor).

NABIs belong on the 1 anyhow. With traffic the way it is on US 1 during rush hours, it wouldn't make much difference.

5351 has been moved to Callowhill. i spotted 5351 on the 65 last week & on the 15(9020 block) last Wed. evening.


5350 has since been moved to Southern. I spotted 5350 as a pullout last week from Southern. <_<
