Railfan Pictures of the Week - 04/01/2018
 
SEPTA West Trenton Line Somerton Station Philadelphia PA March 26 2018
 
It's wire train season on the West Trenton Line, and they are single tracking between Jenkintown and Neshaminy during the middle of the work day. Here RL1A SPAX 61 pauses for lunch at Somerton Station.
Behind the engine was the spool wire car,
gondola SPAX 1103,
catenary car SPAX 2117 and ...
camp car 610 (former Jersey Arrow ex-NJT 5160, ex-NJDOT 508, originally PC 108).
 
SEPTA Main Line and Doylestown Line Lansdale Station Lansdale PA March 28 2018
 
Meanwhile on the Main Line and Doylestown Branch, SEPTA is working on the tracks, single tracking from Gwynedd to Dale and bustituting on the Doylestown Branch between the morning and evening rush hours.
The front track in Lansdale has seen its first use in a decade with SEPTA parking empty flat cars and a caboose from a tie train earlier in March.
Between Fifth and Seventh Streets, they are parking the MOW equipment that heads both north and south after the morning rush.
