The Broad Street Subway


It goes from Fern Rock
to Pattison Avenue
The Broad Street Subway
That's where Philadelphians
travel southward to the games.

It would be interesting to ride a subway but have never done that. I can imagine the game talk after the game and what they could have and could not have done. Enjoyable tanka. love phyl

In Elizabeth, NJ, Broad St. is the end of the train line, and the start of the bus route. ~ Trivia Buff

I guess that would be an interesting ride on a game night/game day. Everyone would be discussing the game. Not too much interested in sports but would probably enjoy riding the subway once in a lifetime but they say they are really dangerous this day and time because of crime. Thanks for dropping by my page. Sara
