QuietCar Survey


Text Block:
PATCO is soliciting customer input regarding a QuietCar Pilot Program, similar to the SEPTA QuietRide Program. A QuietCar could provide our riders a choice to ride in a car where there would be no conversations on cell phones. Customers may text messages provided that all phone settings are set on vibrate or mute; all other electronic devices must be placed on vibrate or mute. The first car of each train would be designated a QuietCar and would be available during the weekdays during morning and evening peak hour service.
