More Unfortunate SEPTA News

SEPTA.png First there was the strike. Then early yesterday morning, a fire disabled service on the R5 and R6 lines. What more could possibly happen?

This: At 8:42 this morning, an otherwise unidentified male who may have been a track inspector was struck and killed by an inbound R3 train near Melrose Park. The R2 (Warminster), R3 (West Trenton) and R5 (Lansdale/Doylestown) lines going beyond Fern Rock are all suspended at the moment due to the accident, which SEPTA is politely calling "police activity" on its website.

We can only wonder what SEPTA related bad news tomorrow will bring.
