Here’s an inside (first) look at one of the Exo cars from Montreal!

SEPTA crews are currently working hard to get these ready for service. This includes installing a Positive Train Control system, shortening exterior doors to accommodate higher platforms, and (as you can see) changing the signage from French to English!

The Exo coach cars will operate with ’s existing push/pull locomotives and join the ten railcars leased from Maryland Area Regional Commuter Rail (MARC) last November.

Funding for the purchase of the railcars comes from the nearly $220 million in
additional capital dollars allocated by Governor Josh Shapiro in November 2025 to support urgent safety upgrades and infrastructure improvements.

Restez à l'affût des mises à jour!

ICYMI SEPTA ridership for September 2026 exceeded 822,000 trips across all modes which is the highest number since February 2020. 🥳

September also marked the seventh consecutive month of year-over-year ridership increases. Ridership is up 8% compared to September 2025.

Bus ridership is up 14% compared to this time last year. Routes that were changed for Phase 1 of the New Bus Network experienced a strong 7% increase in average weekday ridership and weekend travel has grown by 12% on Saturdays and 18% on Sundays.

Ridership growth was particularly strong for routes that were extended (like the Route 45 to NRG Station and the Navy Yard) or had improvements to frequencies. Frequency improvements across multiple routes particularly on weekends better aligns service with where people and mascots are traveling today.

New Bus Network is part of and ’s vision for safe, reliable, and accessible service. The Authority is investing in new transit centers for bus riders and increasing the number of frequent bus routes which will more than double the number of people within a quarter mile of “show up and go” service.
