I think as mentioned before, with all this increase service. SEPTA has no other choice but to keep some of the NABI fleet running around for a while. |

The 9 & 22 would completely lose the presence of artics. The 18 & 55 would lose the artics on weeknights, Sundays & holidays. The service on the 14 beyond Neshaminy Mall must be retained. A one seat ride from Bridge/Pratt to Bucks county is a must. |

I think with the 14 going all artic or some artic they is going to be some major moving of some routes among allegheny, midvale, comly, & frankford. First i think that there some be some type of dual operations between allegeheny & midvale since they are only 5 minutes away from each other. Let allegheny keep thier artics but when needed like at night or on weekend they should be able to go to midvale and get a 40 footer to run on allegheny runs. Now if the 14 does go 100% artic look for it come from alegheny & midvale. Some of the R runs can come from allegeheny/midvale and be interline wit the 14 or the 1 interline with the 14. The 26, 54, 89 all should go to frankford, 1, 19, 67, 88 all go to comly full time and split the 14. |

That's what's being proposed according to the budget proposal. Whether or not SEPTA can pull it off is another thing. Also, I thought the 14/20 interlining ended when the 50 was created. To me, it would've made more sense to interline the 20 and 50 as opposed to the 14 and 20. |

Technically, all three routes ARE interlined, but several 50 trippers have 1, 14, 20, 24, and 58 fillers. |
