SEPTA Historic Fleet (Philadelphia, Pennsylvania)

USA / Pennsylvania / Philadelphia / Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
Collection of historic Broad Street Line subway cars owned by the City of Philadelphia and administered by SEPTA. Has been the target of a spiteful General Manager who tried to first scrap the cars, despite the fact SEPTA did not own them, and then evict the cars, despite the fact SEPTA does not own the land. In both cases a dedicated SEPTA employee alerted City Officials to the abuses and managed to save the fleet.

Collection includes a B1, B2 and B3 BSS cars and a Bridge Line car.
