Hi again, sorry if this is a dumb question, but do the backup diesels have an overhead or underneath exhaust? Thanks.

[bustitution]

@RDG484 The muffler is under the bus a small narrow pipe. Found this out a year ago.

I believe it has an underneath because I see no overhead exhaust. Is there even any space for them

The state or federal government needs to come in and audit Septa from head to toe! I have seen them over the year lay new trolley track, put in new wiring and trolley islands on Trolley routes with the promise of revised service which never materializes. Routes 50, 56, 53 and more recently Rt 23. SEPTA = Slow-Expensive-Poorly operated-Transit-Authority!

I live in South Philly, our only two existing trackless routes have been officially eliminated! All the money they spent on renovations to Southern car house, then the promise of new electrical equipment in 2001, well, almost ten years later now and no new equipment! In some areas the overhead wiring is being neglected, especially on Snyder avenue for the Rt 79. And Tasker and Morris streets is showing the same neglect. Yet, Wyoming avenue was restored completely along with Frankford and Castor?

SEPTA has everything! Man I want to go to Philadelphia! Trolleys, Street Cars, Buses, Subways. :-D

I have been asked that question a million time and I can not even answer it.
