Too much of the history is in the route description section. Somebody should do something about this. --DanTD 01:23, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
The article states that "In the segment from Cheyney Station (the last station in Delaware County) to West Chester Station, SEPTA gradually paved over all crossings." I find this claim dubious, so I'm going to remove it. I have no primary source basis for my suspicion, so I'm going to put my rationale here:
I am aware that these issues are also consistent with tracks being reinstalled subsequent to an over-paving. After all, the West Chester Railroad only began service 10 years after cessation of SEPTA service, and 5 years after the line was declared derelict. However, I personally doubt they would have begun as a volunteer operation, if the tracks had indeed been paved over. If anyone was alive before 1998 and disputes my deletion, feel free to add the removed sentence back in, cite a source indicating such crossings were paved over, and delete my comments here. 128.135.100.108 ( talk) 01:05, 5 November 2016 (UTC)

@ Dough4872: it's actually about fifty/fifty now, all the ex-Reading lines (correctly, in my view) make the distinction between a line and a service. What in particular do you object to? I think my change is more accurate without confusing the reader. Mackensen (talk) 23:46, 27 July 2022 (UTC)
Should we move this article to Media/Wawa Line once service is restored to Wawa station? It seems like the run will start on August 21, so that's likely a good date for move? Tartar Torte 13:43, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
An editor has identified a potential problem with the redirect
Blue Line (Philadelphia SEPTA Media/Elwyn Line) and has thus listed it
for discussion. This discussion will occur at
Wikipedia:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 August 24#Blue Line (Philadelphia SEPTA Media/Elwyn Line) until a consensus is reached, and readers of this page are welcome to contribute to the discussion.
