FYI: The description of the marker lights on the Broad St Subway:

1]White lights - LOCAL TRAINS Fern Rock/AT&T (Pattison)

2]Green Lights - EXPRESS Trains Fern Rock/Walnut Locust [Often, it is used for the Fern Rock/AT&T sports express trains].

3]Yellow Lights - RIDGE SPUR Trains - Fern Rock or Olney/8th and Market [This is used regardless whether the RIDGE trains were express or local. When the RIDGE spur trains were forced to run express, it used Yellow lights up to Girard, then switched to Green from Girard to Olney/Fern Rock. This was reversed for Southbound trains. SEPTA later changed the Identra system when they decided to make the Ridge Express permanent and now RIDGE SPUR trains display Yellow lights all of the time.]

4]Blue Lights - This is meant for the SPORTS EXPRESS trains to AT&T station [usually for Phillies/Eagles games]. Often Green lights are used. On several occasions, Blue Lights are used for extra Local trains for events at the smaller Wells Fargo Center.
