SEPTA
Philadelphia public transit
SEPTA is the Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority, the agency operating buses, subways, trolleys, and commuter rail in the Philadelphia metropolitan area.
I take SEPTA to work every day.
The SEPTA regional rail runs to the suburbs. (Lowercase septa is the plural of septum.)
