I had a friend come down from New York, he works for the MTA, meet me in Philly and we had a good day.

We rode the 66 (all buses today, a parade), the 59 , The EL, the 13, the 101 , and the Norristown High Speed line. We finished up around 5:45 PM at 69th , where my car was parked.

The 101 had close call in m Media, some car tired to squeeze by the trolley and we pretty near had a collision, idiot car driver.
I saw hybrid shuttle buses on the 102 at Drexel Hill Junction.

The Norristown High Speed line was wild, they we trimming trees between Wynnewood Road and Bryn Mawr.
We went slightly past Wynnewood raod, then reversed into the center track, and to the southbound track to wrong rail up to Bryn Mawr. We finally got back on the northbound track at Bryn Mawr.

Coming southbound , we stayed on the southbound track but had to wait 5 minutes for a northbound to clear at Bryn Mawr. The riders and operators were not happy about any of this.
So all in all, good day. my friend was happy I knew the system.
