In fact, delays have been building for much of the evening commute instead of improving.

SEPTA says the issues are being caused by some “mechanical issues” near 30th Street Station.

They did not elaborate, however, on the nature of those issues or how long it may take to repair for service to resume on time.

Instead, they’re simply warning riders to expect delays in both directions on all lines this includes:

• Airport
• Chestnut Hill East
• Chestnut Hill West
• Cynwyd
• Fox Chase
• Doylestown
• Media
• Norristown
• Thorndale
• Trenton
• Warminster
• Newark
• West Trenton
