SEPTA running the entire Keystone would be a terrible idea. There's a reason it's called SEPTIC.
But you know, a Brightline style service would certainly be an interesting proposition. More luxury stations and services is intriguing to a lot of people. I know a lot of people that would take an Acela, but would never be caught dead in an Amfleet. These are people used to riding in modern airplanes with working WiFi, first class and business class services, lounges, etc. Make them want to take the train, instead of doing it just because it's somewhat convenient.
