I spotted 5618 @ Penns Landing yesterday. I also spotted 5936 & 5688 along Delaware Avenue towards Snyder Avenue over the past couple of weeks.

I also spotted 3400 on the 57 today.

Precisely.

As of late, the 13 is currently being dieselized between Mount Moriah (65th & Kingsessing/Kingsessing & Cemetery Avenues)to Yeadon. Why? I'm not sure. It may be accident related, a disabled streetcar or downed wires. Can anyone verify this?

5614 running the L this morning, and my 98 was late with 5323 :angry: !!

However, it was all worth it when i saw my favorite lil dorado make a grandious return - that's right, my bus 4501 is back on the streets, looking better than ever....

Fortunately it is still fast, but that bounce is practically gone, seemingly more so than with most other overhauled Dorados.

Ah well, nice to see the original Dorado back in service!

I spotted 3466 on a straight on the 39 today. A Neo on the 39, you have to go back to the days when the line was assigned to Allegheny to remember seeing a Neo on the 39.

That long. Not really. The 39 was a Neo DK stronghold when it first came to Midvale, then they mixed in some of the 8600s on the line.

Spotted 3487 on Wednesday on the 26 or 18 and 34XX on the 8 Express at Olney Terminal.

The neoplan on the 8 express had square tail lights! Have not seen those in a while. :)

I spotted 5039 & another 500x NABI on the 15 on Friday, I spotted 3431 onthe 25 on Friday, a 3400,3378 on the 5, 3400 on the 57, rode the 2 married pairs of EL cars that have the new seats & side paneling. They look more appealing to the rider.

I spotted DELRV 102 in the Woodland yard, as well as 9087.

2 PCCIIs were in storage at Elmwood & at least one was in storage at Woodland. I rode my other favorite SELRV(other than 9008,9051,with 2 piece windows & as delivered destination signage on the 13 onFriday evening(9:46pm from 9th & Main to Juniper). They're working on the Yeadon loop, trying to make a copycat version of the Malvern Avenue loop on the 10(but the 13 sorely deserves a new loop). It's the only streetcar loop in the SEPTA city transit division that still has 3 sets of tracks & three sets of overhead, all still active.

I also spotted 9036 on the 13 on Friday evening & it has the number with city hall via subway all on one line.This is the side destination sign.

Rode the 52 on Friday evening. Just about every stop on 5n2d street has been moved to the far side.
