Although not now Pittsburgh at one time operated their old B&O commuter train as the PAT train and this was heavy rail. But you are correct at this time only SEPTA operates heavy rail lines in the state.
My friend Catie used to live in Philadelphia, but now she lives in Pottstown, and she had seen the difference between the SEPTA buses and the PART buses.
even SEPTA livery is old, still head of it's time. The livery made each transit vehicle more attractive and new everyday. Septa livery still looks better that any other transit authority.
@@TheDashOfficial Sort of. I rode Muni all the time when I would visit my relatives in San Francisco. I grew up riding LA Metro(nee the RTD and the MTA Yellow Cars and the Santa Monica Big Blue Bus and Culver City Bus.
One more fact you didn't mention and I read on Wikipedia is that SEPTA is the only transit agency that uses all modes of terrestrial transit. MBTA used to be another until they discontinued their trackless trolleys.
With the bus revolution coming, I might be crazy but I think it's time to move on from the letter buses and move them to number buses. Septa definitely needs a livery refresh to badly, I hope it's sooner than later
that's something i didn't know also, since they're the only one with heavy-rail doesnt that mean they're at the top of the list for best transit in the us?
I'm assuming that's in reference to my 1940's comment, and I can see why. I actually took out the line explaining that "things got so out of hand that some bus routes started getting the letter X before their names." just before that line because I thought it was redundant. But I see now it changes the entire context of the statement.
I didn't some of these, now I know thanks!

This was pretty informational. For a septa fan I can say I didn't know some of these facts. Is there anymore though??.
Take me Higher slowed down sounds scary af.
I love septa’s livery though
I never knew about these facts thanks!
Thanks for the Muni shout-out.
I take it, you're a MUNI fan?

At the time of publishing, that wouldn't be true because MBTA still operates trackless trolleys on the SL1, SL2, and SL3.
@@TheDashOfficial I mean the local ones not the BRT.
San Francisco Muni operates cable cars, a mode of terrestrial transit not operated by SEPTA or any other transit system in the US.

You should do your version of PATH vs PATCO in the future with an opinion on which do you like better.
The E is back in SF
It's back to not being back LOL it went back down in 2020, and runs right next to SEPTA route 91

Let's not get carried away LOL
Buses started with Route A in 1925
