SEPTA is good for what it is and it's definitely better than what other cities have. Its strength probably lies in its Regional Rail system although the operation of those trains suck - partially because it shares tracks with Amtrak but also because it's expensive and infrequent service make it a shitty option for anything but commuting from the burbs to work. The Green Lines are also very useful (but isn't there plan on the table to make it more like Regional Rail?).

Getting back on subject, the rust/dirt does look like shit but only from nearby office buildings. For the rest of the world, I doubt anyone notices it. But one person who I am sure does notice and does care is Brian Roberts. Liberty's CEO (William Hankowsky) on the other hand is probably like, "dude, come on, it adds character."
