It's the morning of September 1st, 2011, and there are five sets of Silverliner V trains awake early this morning. And I caught up with four of them. Here they are:
Train #402 pausing at Melrose Park
Train #705 coming into North Philadelphia as a westbound Amtrak Regional rolls by
Train #707 with a pair at North Philadelphia
Train #726 running between its own slot and that of canceled train #9724 before it making a quick stop at Bridesburg

Just one line. SEPTA Route 127 comes to Trenton from Morrisville, Oxford Valley, and Neshaminy Mall. On Sunday, 30 SEPTA buses were loaned to Suburban Transit to assist in providing shuttle service between northern NJ to NYC in the aftermath of Sandy. They will remain there until no longer needed and returned. It is part of a group of 200 buses coming from transit systems across the nation to assist in New Jersey.

And that's a nice announcement with the express train rather than describing stopping patterns.

That train originated at Chestnut Hill East on the RDG side, heading towards Trenton.

The motors and engines sound different than I imagined

Not a problem! Happens to all of us at times :)

Silverliner Vs are currently not in service, all are grounded due to cracks found in the trucks on 95% (115 cars) of the fleet. The cracks are located on the equalizer beam.

@iJandiN2727 Currently, the top speed permitted is 90mph. Testing was recently completed that will allow them a top speed of 100, but those speeds will only happen on certain trains in Amtrak territory.

@trainman1971 12 лет назад

I've not seen anything in my SEPTA bulletins stating otherwise yet, so the permitted maximum speed is still 90 for the Silverliner V's.

@LIRR175 He was running with a "Fern Rock via Center City Express" destination sign up.

@LIRR175 Makes it a lot simpler for multiple express patterns, yep.
