SEPTA Metro consists of six lines containing thirteen services. The L and B were both inherited from the former Philadelphia Transportation Company, and originally built by the Philadelphia Rapid Transit Company. The system also includes the M, an interurban rail line between Norristown, Pennsylvania and Upper Darby Township, Pennsylvania, originally owned by the Philadelphia and Western Railroad, then acquired by the Philadelphia Suburban Transportation Company (PSTC).
The system also contains three trolley lines. The T and the G were inherited from the former Philadelphia Transportation Company (PTC) and originally built by the Philadelphia Rapid Transit Company (PRT). The D was built by the Philadelphia and West Chester Traction Company (P&WCTC) and later inherited by the Philadelphia Suburban Transportation Company (PSTC). Operation of the D was taken over by SEPTA in 1970.
