At 3:42, has anyone ever seen one car of the "EL" trainset in that open yard part? If you have, did they move it out on the streets? Like street running movement?

Being a New Yorker for some time now, am so amazed about this video EVERYWHERE IS SOOO CLEAN, LIKE THE PLATFORM, STREETS AND TRACKS HAS NO RUBBISH.WELL DONE TO THE CITY OF PHILADELPHIA. I like their transportation system, more nostalgic for me, more important is the quality of service just the cleansiness of the place is a huge point for Philly. @timosha21 your stuff are awesome!

I love Philadelphia, it's like a scaled down - pas-tense version of NYC (how it used to be.. urban & real). The transit system there is on point, and FAST.. the trolleys (LRV) are a joy to use and the way the link up with the subway is commendable (this is something the MTA should consider here for us in NYC, with neighborhoods a good distance away from the subway - buses are far too slow and unreliable for this task). They even run on the same gage trackage.. Impressive

Nicely done! I didn't mix scenes in my videos, but if I decide to video again, I will follow this format. Again, thanks.

Nice video Xcept for the music. It would have been nice to actually hear whatever you were filming... Good video shoot otherwise!..

I love some of the music you put on there! Can you post a playlist of all the songs you used in order?

@timosha21 (Continued -part 2) I took above ground-trains in Doublin-Ireland called the Dart & that was very cool, with old fashion eatting, drinking & smoking cars -That may have been the coolest for me. I went to Ireland to run the Dublin Marathon, which I did in 1998. I also was in London twice only for like a week at a time and their subway was called the, "Under Ground" which was pretty nice too. Almost like in Paris not as detailed & beautiful-Paris trains were full of articulate detail.
