PHILADELPHIA – SEPTA is reminding Philadelphia Flower Show attendees that public  transportation offers convenient travel to the Pennsylvania Convention Center without the hassles of  traffic and parking. There will be extra service on Regional Rail, along with frequent transit options. 

Traveling to the Philadelphia Flower Show 

All Regional Rail trains stop at Jefferson Station, which is located on the lower level of the Pennsylvania  Convention Center. Starting Saturday, March 1, SEPTA will provide additional Regional Rail trips. 

On Saturdays and Sundays, from March 1 to March 2 and March 8 to March 9, extra trains will operate  on the Lansdale/Doylestown; Paoli/Thorndale; and Fox Chase Lines Regional Rail Lines. 

There are also convenient transit options. The [L] (Market-Frankford Line), [B] (Broad Street Line) and  the [T] (Trolley lines), offer frequent service, stopping at 13th Street, one block from the Pennsylvania  Convention Center. In addition, bus routes 4, 16, 17, 23, 27, 33, 38, 44, 45, 48, 61, 78, 124 and 125 stop  at or near the Convention Center. 

Convenient Ways to Pay 

Attendees are encouraged to load funds onto a SEPTA Key Card for ease of travel. For buses, subways,  and trolleys, customers can use contactless payment options like credit and debit cards and Apple,  Google, and Samsung Pay.  

On Regional Rail, passengers can buy fares on the train when traveling towards the city using cash or a  credit or debit card. However, for trips leaving the city, passengers must purchase fares in advance to be  able to access the waiting and boarding areas.
