Yeah, but the Blue Route is minimally (if at all) involved coming from where I live in Swarthmore. (I usually just get on 95 at MacDade, right on the border between Swarthmore and Chester.) Baltimore (Pike, not Ave, till the Philly side of Springfield ;^>) isn't a road you want to be going either direction on through Springfield at any point during the work day, imho. And then it narrows down to one lane in either direction and the stop lights get even more frequent till you get to the city. And the trolleys... -- gabriel rosenkoetter gr@eclipsed.net Attachment:
