septa105R5/seClip9 Posted February 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 Yeah. After their lost to Eagles. Following Eagle's won, they will have Eagles Superbowl Champion Parade. As a result, there will service interuption at SEPTA with service resembling to what it is like when Pope Francis visited Philly. Example included limited service to Philly for Regional Rail (4 am to 9 am: Train only to Philly (no outbound trains from Philly) and 2pm to end of day: Trains departing Philly (not inbound trains int Philly).. http://www.septa.org/eagles/index.html https://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/local/How-to-Get-to-the-Philadelphia-Eagles-Super-Bowl-LII-Victory-Parade-SEPTA--472955413.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

septa105R5/seClip9 Posted February 8, 2018 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 (Saw this via local news station's livestream) So today was Philadelphia Eagle's Parade in Philly (from South Philly to Art Museum). And buses used are Big Bus Company's Gillig Advantage Converted Double Decker, Leyland Olympian, Alexander Dennis Enviro 500. Academy Bus's Van Hool CX35 was seen as well. I think according to transit fans from PMATS, they reported seeing few SEPTA buses participated in parade as well! All buses featured Eagle's Superbowl Champion Wrap.

Congrats Philadelphia Eagles Superbowl Champions! Big Bus Philly does not operate Enviro500s. Big Bus NY does operate Enviro400s so that is what you might have actually seen - if so, it was highly likely that it was driven down to Philly for the parade.
