![]() Hampton Moore signed dozens of ordinances to rip up tracks all over the city, from Emerald Street to Passyunk Avenue. In the 1920s, there was a mass eradication of trolley routes. Back then, it cost a mere 13 cents to ride the bus. The biggest difference from the 1920s-era system, naturally, is the fare. Later additions included Route 39, carrying passengers from 33rd and Dauphin to Cumberland and Richmond, and the suburban Route 77, from Chester to Media.Īctual motor buses didn’t enter the system until 1923, records show, and to differentiate from the trolleys, they were lettered instead of numbered - from Route A through Route X-1.
