On our way back to DC from New York, my mom, sister, and I stopped over in Philadelphia for a…read morecouple of days. We stayed with a friend in the suburb of Media (the first American fair trade town and home of a big FBI scandal in the 70s), and in order to get to downtown Philadelphia, we had to take the Regional Rail train from Media Station, a 40 minute commute. Unfortunately the train only ran once an hour, but it was quite reliable. Media Station is small, but it was comfortable, with benches and indoor seating, and most important of all, a bathroom. Ed, the ticket agent, was friendly and helpful, and very patient with my mom, who asked him a billion questions. Although the train runs seven days a week until quite late at night, the sales office is only open Monday to Friday, from 5:15am to 11:15am. However, you can purchase tickets on the train.

Normally pretty clean…read more - During (limited) business hours, they do sell tickets here (unlike nearby Elwyn). - This is zone 3 for ticket price calculation. - Parking is the usual for SEPTA; get there early and you have a chance. - This stop is 4 (small) blocks from various bus stops, and 6 (small) blocks from the trolly (light rail 101, to 69th Street). - This line connects at 30th Street Station, to access Amtrak, and other regional rail lines. It also stops at other center city stations, to connect with regional rail and subway lines. This line does not go directly to the airport. You are better off getting a taxi or private car for the time it would take to make connections for the airport. * * * TIP * * * There is a GREAT convenience store up the hill and across the bridge to your left, Kovac's. These are the BEST hoagies around!!! We don't just go there when we have to catch a train; they are on my list for top hoagies in the whole Phila area. This historical station has been around a LONG time and little has changed. See vintage postcards I am posting.

Uber will always get 5 stars from me…read more Living in one of the 5th largest cities in the U.S., it is often hard, no, impossible to be anything other than a nameless face in a crowd, an otherwise anonymous customer number or just a delivery address. As many issues that Philly might have, there is an unfettered joy and sense of adventure for me with the random, chance encounters the city offers. As I am conveyed back and forth to the South Street vet with my sick little white cat, once again I get to have some funny, interesting, happy, poignant and occasionally simply dull, yawning interactions with Uber's legions of drivers. I love getting a minute peek into the thoughts and lives of these drivers who are so often taken for granted and treated like robots. Sure, some of these folx have complicated lives, second and third jobs and want nothing more to get through their shift in peace and quiet. As an introvert, I always test the conversational waters when I step into an Uber vehicle. If the driver answers me in monosyllables, I take it he or she simply wants to drive, thus I keep to myself. Some drivers are possibly bored yet enthused about chatting so as a result I have been privileged to learn about their families, their country of origin, their snack preferences, some of the odd/interesting/pesky passengers they've conveyed, music tastes and most of all-how connected everyone of us really are. Almost as good, since I don't drive, is having the little kid in me awakened and absolutely thrilled at going out for a car ride. (Sure, it isn't free but the little boy in me never even considers that. He simply has a blast seeing the city from a vehicle...) While Uber is a business, it would be nothing without its drivers. Sure, sometimes they are slow to arrive or they flip your trip to another driver. From time to time, a driver is having a rotten day and acts out a bit. Examine your conscience. Haven't you had similar days or nights, no matter what you do for a living? Rather than bitching and moaning, treat your Uber ride as a way to connect with someone you'd probably never meet in your regular social circle. See your driver like the unique, silly, grouchy, aspiring, single parenting, hard working, dream filled human being they are; under the t-shirt, under the jacket, under the trucker's cap, behind the knock off shades-they are someone just like you.

Yeah I just thought you got to pay $20 to retrieve your item if you accidentally dropped it or lost…read moreit inside the Uber. I took a ride across me $7 I dropped my item that's only like $7 and they charge me $20 to retrieve it it's like holding your item for ransom. So I look at it like if it's an item that's not worth retriever leave it be and if it is worth retrieving more likely you won't be able to get it and they won't reimburse you but yet they will charge you $20 to retrieve your own items. I use Uber a lot and they're about to lose a very good customer because they care about the money more than they care about their customers

SEPTA - Moylan-Rose Valley Station

The Moylan-Rose Valley station is located on the Media/Elwyn line of the SEPTA regional rail system…read more(in Zone 3). It is between the Media stop, and the Wallingford stop. Access to the station is from Manchester Ave. This is closest to South Media as well as the two neighborhoods mentioned in the station name. Manchester Ave. is not very walkable into town, with a somewhat busy road and no sidewalks. I do not recommend this stop if you are walking and are not familiar with the area (it does connect to bus 118). If walking, you are better off getting off at the Media stop to access Media Borough. *If you are trying to get to The Pennsylvania Institute of Technology, then yes, this is closest, but still, watch traffic as you walk there, because that bend of the road is dangerous in a car, let alone on foot. There is a sizable parking lot at this station, however it is pretty full as are most SEPTA regional rail lots. (I know a number of people who live nearby and walk there.) Each space costs $1 in quarters at the machine per day. This station has a SEPTA ticket office, open 5:15am-11:15am M-F. This station also has a US Post Office (which is only open M-Sat 7am - 10:30am -- see separate Yelp listing). There is a small porch overhang off of the station house for inclement weather. Fun Fact: This station has operated since 1870!
