No. SEPTA isn't in the business of learning. I hope there's a good reason for that, although I didn't see it.

Funny how SEPTA got their money, and they continue to cut service...as I predicted.

Just wait until this happens though. The full route cars are going to be jammed with people while the short turns will have like 10 people. Looks like I'll be taking other routes to get home from school and such. I can't imagine how the 102 or the 101 will look with this mess in place.

Um, doesn't it say that Outbound AM Express trips only are being eliminated (according to the Metro page from the 28th)? That's seems like they would be against the flow of traffic anyway.

The schedule change only affects the three outbound trips on Route 101 in the morning. It's hardly on the same scale as the Route 100, which carries twice as many passengers and has 9 limited and 6 express runs westbound in the AM.

I just noticed that. I thought it said all outbound expresses. My appologies. Maybe SEPTA isn't that dumb. (Or are they?)
