SEPTA Service on Holiday Weekend

from the inbox:

Those traveling to Philadelphia’s Penn’s Landing and New York City’s Times Square to ring in 2012 can take advantage of extended SEPTA late night and early morning Regional Rail service to get home from the celebrations.

SEPTA has added additional late night trains to Trenton, Elwyn, Wilmington, Malvern, Chestnut Hill West, Warminster, West Trenton, Lansdale, Manayunk-Norristown, Fox Chase and Chestnut Hill East. These trains are scheduled to leave Center City after the midnight fireworks at Penn’s Landing. For example, the last train traveling to Chestnut Hill West on a Saturday night is normally scheduled to leave Market East at 10:05 p.m. The extended New Year’s Eve late night train will give riders ample time to enjoy the spectacular fireworks display and make their way to the train station as the last train will leave Market East at 1:40 a.m.

Riders traveling to New York City to see the ball drop in Times Square can also connect with SEPTA at the Trenton Transportation Center. For passengers taking early morning New Jersey Transit trains, SEPTA trains will depart from Trenton at 2:03 a.m., 3:30 a.m., 5 a.m. and 6 a.m.
