SEPTA cleaners?

If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I wouldn't have believed it: a couple of days ago, I saw SEPTA employees cleaning platforms, both on the El (30th Street) and the Broad Street Line (Lombard-South).

The guy cleaning at 30th Street was scrubbing with a long-handled push broom. At Lombard-South, it was a woman walking behind a motorized wet mopping machine.

Now if only something could be done with the terribly neglected Fairmount stop on the Broad-Ridge Spur. That station freakin' depresses me whenever I ride through.
