Philadelphia's Market-Frankford line lost a branch line, and other parts of the elevated structure have since been dismantled when the line was moved into tunnel directly below.
On the Broad Street Line, the trains have two chimes at the same tone "[dong-dong]" and a two-tone chime before any announcements. The Market-Frankford Line has automated announcements that go something like this: "This is a 69th Street train making all stops. This is a Frankford train making A stops. A stops only! [same for B] Doors opening! Doors closing!"
