Septa SL5 RFW on train #2522 from Newark, De. to PHL. 3/13/24

Unlike the outbound ride, this will be much more detailed. The sun angle on this journey was much more favorable and this is my best effort on a Newark to Philadelphia RFW. All passing trains, signals and indications, stations, overhead bridges and some undergrade bridges, and interlockings will be identified. In addition, you will hear some Conductor Paul style poetry relating to the station names. I admit some of the poems flow well and others are a little awkward, but you get the idea. As you can tell, I never get tired of doing these SV5 rides. (Signal at 0:58 is pro cab. Flashing green) (At 57:30 the Septa tracks are 5/4 left to right, not 2/1) (I’m slipping. At 0:31 the train is #2522) it’s been along day
