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. This generally runs about once every 5-10 minutes on paper, but the actual frequency is essentially random. This is the main route of tthe transit center.  113 - Claymont Transit Center to 69th Street Transit Center: This bus runs from 69th Street Transit Center ...

Creek Road is a station on SEPTA's D2 line. The station is located at the rail line's intersection with Creek Road. Creek Road is essentially a trail, making this one of the few SEPTA stations that's either directly in or next to a major park. It's very likely that this is the least used station on the D2, though I'm still calculating ridership for the line.  Tour Trolley Creek Road is a very small station, its platforms barely fit the trolleys themselves.   Bench Obviously this station isn't accessible since the Kawasaki K-Car trolleys themselves aren't. Even without that though, Creek Road would still be inaccessible.  Stairs A lengthy staircase is the only way down The entire northbound platform The northbound platform is longer than the southbound platform. On the other side of that platform there's a line map. There's supposed to also be a full system map but that's missing. Instead...

Scenic Road is a station on SEPTA's D1 Line. The station is located at the line's intersection with Scenic Road in Springfield Township, Delaware County, PA.  Tour Shelter Scenic Road is a normal D1 station in most cases. Bench Inside the shelter  Signage! There are no notices on the board, and the map is outdated This map is from 2014 Westbound platform Back of shelter Parking meter being installed Parking Why exactly Scenic Road has this much parking, I have no clue. The parking lot does get use though The bustitution shuttle stop    Normally, I don't feature these, but the location of this one was funny enough to include it. It's at a random street corner far enough away that the average person wouldn't notice it.  That trolley later broke down between Huey Avenue station and the Drexel Hill Junction and was stuc...

Baltimore Avenue is a station on SEPTA's D2 line. The station is located at the line's intersection with Baltimore Avenue in the small town of Clifton Heights.  History Aerial photograph from the 1940s, showing the town and station, among other things Baltimore Avenue station was built in 1906 by the Philadelphia and West Chester Traction Company. It was unique in that it was built with an actual depot that one could buy tickets from. At some point between the P&WCTC rebranding as Red Arrow, Red Arrow absorbing the Philadelphia and Western railroad, Red Arrow closing at least half of its lines, and it eventually being absorbed by SEPTA, the depot was closed and boarded up. Not much else has happened since then. Tour The depot The old depot is all boarded up, and probably won't be fixed anytime soon.  Inbound platform There's really nothing much here.  Doors, a bench, and a bike rack A map ...
