Septa 1960s Silverliners on the R3

Here is a rare glimpse of a train consisting of three Silverliner 2 cars and one Silverliner 3 car, captured May 23, 2007. All cars are ex-PRR.

Lead car: 269
Second car: 220 Silverliner 3
Third: 262
Last: 215

All these cars will be retired/replaced by Silverliner 5 cars (numbered 700/800 series).

This location is the grade crossing at Wycombe Avenue just east of Lansdowne Station and one block south of Baltimore Pike.

@amtrak939 This is the Wycombe Ave crossing just east of Lansdowne station. I'd forgotten to add the location to the video description but now it's in.
