SEPTA's 25 Hz traction power system

The Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority (SEPTA) operates a 25-hertz traction power system in the vicinity of Philadelphia. The system, which SEPTA inherited from the Reading Company, is similar to but electrically separate from the 25-hertz system built by the Pennsylvania Railroad (PRR) and now operated by Amtrak.
