Here is a question that maybe someone can answer. I have always wondered when the clocks are turned ahead or back what do the nightliners do at that point? This coming Sunday they would be an hour late.....so does SEPTA put extra buses out to cover the schedule?

They may do just that. Lord knows what would happen if:

I'm driving 5002 on 52, 9501 block on a Sunday morning involving daylight savings time (1:30am, leaving 50th & Woodland) leaving to go up top, arriving @ 54th & City Line Avenue @ 1:58am, with a 2:30am departure from 54th & City Line Avenue(southwest corner),but we all lost an hour to daylight savings time & thus instead of me leaving @ 2:30am, I'd leave @ 3:30am from City Line Avenue & get crucified with all of the "letouts" along 52nd Street.

Again, maybe they put a wildcat on the night owls. Ask someone from Midvale or Frankford as to what they do.
