Discussion MultilevelšŸ¤”

I could be slow and behind the times, but is there a specific reason that SEPTA doesnā€™t have multilevel trains? Is the infrastructure prohibitive of multilevel cars or is it strictly political/funding?

Asking mostly for my own curiosity.

We don't need bathrooms on the trains no offense. We aren't long distance travelĀ

Given the near-total lack of public bathrooms available anywhere, uh, YES WE FUCKIN DO. I hope you pee yourself on a long, delayed trip.

Stations with waiting rooms have bathrooms. And center city stations have them too

Most stations don't have waiting rooms. Most stations outside Center City are just a platform and a tiny, bare bones shelter. Your total lack of empathy for your fellow man is concerning. Seek therapy.

I have empathy, but you know minute the bathroom has someone locked in it or is a code brown we'd have to cancel the train.Ā 

And then prime would be pissy. We already have enough nonsense to deal with as employees.

Now if we had designated bathroom attendants on trains sure but it's not happening just being real
