including the Brill Bullet station art,

before taking the El to Center City and checking out the new track 
installation.

and got on the 15 at Girard and Lancaster.

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.

We got off at Front Street

and took some more pix prior to taking the El back to 30th Street.

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