This is the best way to get a front view of the tracks without being an engineer: the railfan window on the new SEPTA Silverliner V! Acelaphillies brings you every minute from the front seat between Trenton, NJ and Philadelphia, PA 30th Street Station on Amtrak's Northeast Corridor (The SEPTA Trenton Line). From the front of train 9720 you will see NJ Transit, Amtrak and SEPTA as you speed along at up to 90 mph the NEC! Follow the train as we make every stop from Trenton to Torresdale, except for Eddington, then express to Philly. So sit back and enjoy as we leave Trenton Station at 6:56am on our way to Philadelphia!
