The motorman took off as we were taking a couple quick pix at 63rd and
Girard, as he was a few minutes behind schedule.

That worked out to our benefit, because the next car had to use the
passing track to get around a bus that blocked the main track.

All this cost each of my friends $5.50 (day pass) and cost me $0.85
(senior Regional Rail ticket).
