Select Schedule Enhancements Effective Monday, August 8, 2016
August 5, 2016
SEPTA continues to work to enhance the Interim Weekday Schedules to address crowding and station pass-ups and maximize operation of the leased train cars already in service and the additional cars that will be arriving in time for the service day on Monday, August 8.
Weekday schedules on the Regional Rail Lines listed below will take effect at the start of the service day Monday, August 8 and will reflect the addition of newly leased train cars. The schedule changes continue to improve service and alleviate the shortage created by the Silverliner V fleet. ALL other Lines will continue to operate the schedules with the Monday, July 11 and Monday, July 18, 2016 effective dates (check the timetables below for effective dates).

Customers should still be prepared for crowding on trains. Because of the continued reduced seating capacity and out of a concern for the safe travel of customers, some trains may not be able to stop to pick up additional riders, especially at stations closer to Center City. Given these conditions, we are asking customers to consider using SEPTA Transit services as an alternate to Regional Rail.
Alternate travel options include the Broad Street Line Market Frankford Line Norristown High Speed Line Route 101/102 Trolleys
There are additional parking options:
-
Naval Hospital (1600 Pattison Ave): 1600 parking spaces will be available within walking distance of AT&T Station FREE.
