Good afternoon,
SEPTA recently released the technical specs for the M-5 fleet of cars.

The highlights include no open gangways, potential longitudinal seating, and plenty of information displays.
The astute among you reading the specs will realize that SEPTA is essentially describing a PA-5 car built for PATH. These cars would be excellent M-4 replacements, and I would be very happy to see new Kawasaki products in Philadelphia once again.
