	Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		SEPTA Subway-Surface Trolley Lines: 5 trolley routes that run in a subway in Center City and fan out along on street-level trolley tracks in West Philadelphia.
		SEPTA was formed on August 17, 1963 by Pennsylvania state charter and on November 1, 1965 absorbed the SEPACT and PSIC organizations, which helped the railroads and transit companies continue to operate unprofitable passenger services.
		SEPTA acquired the Philadelphia Transportation Company (PTC) on September 30, 1968, which included bus, trolley, and trackless trolley routes, and the Market-Frankford Line and the Broad Street Line.

	App Note 40, Comparison of Septa by Direct Thermal Extraction
		The problem of septa bleed can be minimized by using low bleed high temperature septa which produce the lowest amount of bleed even when used at temperatures up to 300 deg C. Septa bleed can also be minimized by using a septum purge at all times, even when using the splitless technique.
		Septa from the other manufacturers were desorbed at 250 deg C. Thermogreen septa from Sulpelco were found to contain low concentrations of the compounds pentamethyl-disiloxane and a propanoic acid derivative at a desorption temperature of 250 deg C (Fig.
		Septa should be changed periodically in order to ensure the cleanliness of the system and to assure that background peaks are not interfering with the analysis of the samples.

	DVARP Statement on SEPTA Service Cuts (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-06)
		SEPTA's reason for truncating the Ivy Ridge line at Cynwyd was bad condition of its 1930s vintage 130-pound rail--yet it did not shut down the Chestnut Hill West line because of rail conditions, on a line partly surfaced until 1994 with 100-pound rail dating from 1921.
		SEPTA's inaction on this development when the Overbrook facility was being built (with the excuse, `it's Amtrak's track') has made it clear to DVARP and the traveling public that it considers the Cynwyd line to be of no value.
		SEPTA is in danger of intending a service to be all things to all people and ending up with a service which is too convoluted to be of any use to any people other than those most desperately dependent on public transportation.

		SEPTA, a state agency created in 1964, relies on two separate sources to fund its operations: fares paid by customers and subsidies from the state, local and federal governments.
		SEPTA’s primary subsidy source is the state, and operating subsidies are appropriated on a year-to-year basis, but without guarantee.
		SEPTA also proposed substantially reducing services by widening the frequencies between trips, reducing the hours of operation and eliminating trips that carry the fewest passengers.

	(Philadelphia, PA) SEPTA and union begin talks - Cyburbia Forums
		A year ago, SEPTA was in crisis mode and its largest union agreed to an unusual, one-year contract with no salary increase in the hope that Harrisburg would address the agency's long-term funding problems.
		SEPTA remains in financial trouble, but the head of Transport Workers Union Local 234 said yesterday that, this year, he would seek a long-term contract with pay raises.
		SEPTA's challenge is to negotiate a multi-year deal for about 5,000 employees at the same time that it seeks to remedy a $62 million deficit by raising fares and dramatically dismantling service unless the state comes up with more money by March 6.
