I visited DC with a friend yesterday and we took the Metro all over the city and as someone who takes Septa weekly almost daily because I don’t have a car, I was floored. The Metro felt like a fever dream. The staff was incredibly kind and helpful, the stations were spotless, spacious, quiet, the train cars were clean, most of all though was the signage my god the signage. It was beautiful. My friend and I (also a frequent Septa user) were in shock of just how clean and organized it was.

It makes me so sad with everything that’s going on with Septa and how with the right funding and support it could be as good or near as good as the Metro. But a girl can dream. I’m just wondering as to how we got here and how Septa leaders at this point are basically saying yup we’re starting the death spiral it is what it is. Is there any light at the end of the tunnel for us?
