Stops on map

Some stops have been removed:

47th St WB is discontinued, but EB is active. Island-Suffolk & 76th St have been removed completely. Maverick929 (talk) 07:14, 11 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Maverick929: In the SEPTA data feed I am seeing 47th & Woodland discontinued on both EB and WB. Island–Suffolk and 76th have station platforms, and are also still listed as active. Do you have an updated source for these? Cards84664 14:45, 11 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Cards84664

47th was brought back EB after the bridge over the Wawa Line reopened following its rebuild due to public outcry.

But the WB stop remains closed due to how unsafe it is to access the trolleys in the street since the sidewalk curves away from the tracks approaching 47th St.

Google Maps verifies the unsafe street setup.

Suffolk, is strange considering that the stop is literally right before the tracks curve into Eastwick Loop so I would think that it would be named after the Loop.

Plus, Suffolk Ave hasn't existed there (neither has 80th St) since the 70s when the Eastwick neighborhood was demolished in anticipation of a never built redevelopment project. Maverick929 (talk) 16:42, 11 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Also, there is no stop at 52nd St as there is no street by that name down there. Maverick929 (talk) 07:15, 11 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Maverick929: Per SEPTA, the approximate location of the stop is called "52nd & Grays" in their transit data, even though there's no 52nd Street there. Cards84664 14:43, 11 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Cards84664 there are literally no stops on the route between 51st and 53rd. At all. IDK what stop they're referring to as there isn't enough space for 3 stops on that stretch. Google Maps can verify this. Maverick929 (talk) 16:34, 11 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Maverick929: I'm confused too, per this. Cards84664 02:11, 12 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Cards84664 yeah, that's weird considering that a turn and there's a mattress place on the WB side and part of a sanitation place on the EB side so there's nowhere even to safely place a stop there. I live in Philly so I pass that way all the time and am familiar with all the stops. Maverick929 (talk) 04:29, 12 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
