Here's one major thing they plan to achieve with Regional Rail
Our vision is to reimagine Regional Rail as a better connected service by
providing all-day frequency across the network.
To achieve Frequent Regional Rail with service operating every 15 minutes, 15
hours a day, seven days a week, the system will require significant upgrades
including modern multi-door rail cars, stations with high-level platforms, offboard fare collection, track and signal upgrades, and maximization of train
throughput in the Center City commuter tunnel. This is a significant effort. It
will take time and money to bring this century-old railroad into the 21st century.
