Anyone SEPTA (Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority) insiders have the scoop on why SEPTA'S G (Girard Ave) trolleys are mostly replaced by buses? Spoke with a SEPTA guy who didn't know of any large street works along the route ... but the https://septa-g-trolley-tracker.netlify.app/ has been showing Bus Only nearly every day, esp. on weekends. Planning an ad hoc trolley linear event ("Meet Me on the G" or some such)... but can't plan it if trolleys keep being no-shows.

Track vintage PCC trolley cars on SEPTA Route G (Girard Line) in real-time. Plan your trip to catch a 1940s streetcar in Philadelphia.

Just around the corner from Trophy Bikes, dead-end Bonsall Street brings the bump. Come through and check what makes the all-new BROMPTON G LINE so good when the going gets rough.

THERE IS NO SHORTAGE of videos showing us how to blast our dirty Brompton drive-trains clean with any number of powerful chemical solvent products. All of these have one thing in common: scary warnings in small print. FURTHERMORE, such solvents can stick around, attacking lubricants and our lungs. We prefer to brush and gently scrape crud off the chain /sprockets/ chainring, following up with various milder cleaners and our never-ending supply of donated rags. It’s the least we can do for our dolphin pals! Bring your Brompton to Trophy for a quick (and free) service estimate. Shop hours: noon-6pm, Wed-Sat., at 133 S. 23rd St., Phila. PA.
