  • i rode the 75 to wayne junction from arrott terminal then catch whatever train come first (R1,R2,R3,R5,R7 or R8) train ti center city because i don't like catching the EL that much always be too many problems.

  • the 75 ran the same thing as you mention the 59 and 66.

  • on a double line heading east it would eventually pass under the Elevated at Erie-Torresdale station, continuing on Torredale northeast terminating at a loop at Cottman and Torresdale Aves. all Street car service to Northeast has been terminated, the last to go bye-bye was the Rt. 56 on Erie-Torredale, the tracks were officially covered over in 2004.

  • The Rt. 50 which ran from South Philly up 5th. street then on to Rising sun avenue crossed the Rousevelt Blvd. and teminated at a loop in Lawncrest. Rt. 66 ran from Fkfd. Terminal to a loop at city line Rd. on the Bucks-Philly border. The old Rt. 3 trolley winded it's way from South Philly and ran under the Elevated, teminating at Fkfrd Term. Rt. 56 ran from Nicetown in North Philly 22nd. and Venango along Erie, it crossed Rt. 23 in G-town and Broad in North Philly proceeding on Erie ave-

  • They removed the two remaining trackless routes in South Philly, we do not know if they are coming back, route 29 Tasker-Morris streets and the double line on Snyder Ave, route 79 they both worked out of Southern car house, I doubt they will return. Yet, they wasted money by installing these new cars on Wyoming avenue up in that shit hole neighborhood!

  • looks like a nice place to live lol

  • I don't know about the 75 but I do know that at one time the 59 and the 66 were served by the old 5200-series double-end trolleys.

  • Was this area ever serviced by trolley?

  • Saw some of these sitting in Frankford Transit Center's garage once. Cool 2 def!
