I was trying to figure out how to get from Scranton to D.C. on public transportation once. Seemed simple. Take a bus from Scranton to Philly, then get on a train to D.C.

The hard part was trying to figure out how to get from the bus station in Philly to the train station in Philly. I could find them both on a map, and see that they were both in the same area. But a little longer than you would want to walk with luggage. There was some sort of light rail or subway that connected them, but it took much longer than needed to figure out that system.

I've used public transportaion all over the world, but the system in Philly was not clear to an outsider. Your SEPTA R7/R3 story reminds me of that.
