Ranya's Ramblings

96th Street is the current terminus station for NYCMTA's 2nd Avenue Subway. This station is mainly served by the Q train, and currently nothing else.  Tour Train Escalator Platforms This station has an island platform, though I'm fairly certain all of the 2nd Avenue subway stations do.  Upper mezzanine I'm not sure why this is needed. When this was finished in 2016, it was hilariously over-budget. This is the definition of hubris, of pointless waste from endless streams of consultants. If the bloat of modern day US transit projects was a place, it'd be here. Area before fare control Bulletins, maps, and such Outside of station    Besides all of this, 96th Street-2nd av is a pleasant station, and it seems to do most things well enough to be usable by those who need it.  Bus Connections There are only three bus connections you can make here that are actually convenient ...

Eastwick is a station on SEPTA's Airport Line. The station is located along Bartram Avenue near 84th Street in Philadelphia's Eastwick neighborhood. There were plans to rebuild that station and make an Eastwick Transit Center, extending the T5 to it. Considering the capital funds are being siphoned for operational expenses now, it's unknown if this will even happen.   Tour Everything here is made out of wood. At least unlike Highland Avenue or County Line almost everything is on the ground or not all that far from it.  Crossing Shelter and sign Bench Wheelchair ramp Another end It brings me joy to think about how the map is basically zip tied to the fence.  Do you trust that bench? I don't ??????? Bench with small kiss-and-ride I wonder if there's any space here to actually park cars. The actual parking lot is on the other side of the station, and ...

Darby Transit Center is a SEPTA transit center located near 9th Street and Main Street in the borough of Darby, Pennsylvania.  Available Routes These are the routes that go to Darby Transit Center: T3 - 13th-Market to Yeadon and Darby Transit Center: Formerly known as the 13, this trolley route is one of SEPTA's subway surface trolleys. Most T3 trolleys go to Yeadon, with only a few per day going past that to Darby. There are plans to make the T3 much more frequent past Yeadon, but they require large amounts of trackwork to even make possible.  T4 - 13th-Market to Darby Transit Center: This is another subway-surface trolley, this one going directly to Darby via Woodland Avenue/Main Street.
