SEPTA was named the best large transit system in North America on Thursday by the American Public Transportation Association.

HUH? Are you kidding? Has April Fools Day come 4 months late? One has to wonder if APTA bestowed this honor from afar, because I can't imagine they really came and rode the system. I'd give the whole system a high grade for the wide variety of modes it offers, but that's it. The new commuter cars are a vast improvement too, but as they continue to operate through un-air conditioned stations and high crime areas, and with NO bathrooms, it's just a band-aid on an open wound.
