Media 101-on the street.

This is not a class. It’s a streetcar!

My first visit to Media, Pa., was more than 45 years ago. On that trip, my family rode from the 69th Street Terminal in Upper Darby on a December evening in a vintage Brilliner trolley car. At the time the car was more than 40 years old. I’d made an underexposed Kodachrome slide of the car in the inky darkness

Kris and I made a Media visit in January. On this adventure I caught one of SEPTA’s early 1980s-vintage Kawasaki Cars working the single track line on State Street in midday sun.

SEPTA has plans to retire these relics in another few years, and I was happy to make a few digital photo of this car.

More Media photos will follow over the coming days.
