Those traveling to Philadelphia's Penn's Landing and New York City's Times Square to ring in 2013 can take advantage of extended SEPTA late night Regional Rail service to return home from the celebrations.

SEPTA has added additional late night trains to Trenton, Elwyn, Wilmington, Malvern, Chestnut Hill West, Warminster, West Trenton, Lansdale, Manayunk-Norristown, Fox Chase and Chestnut Hill East.

For example, the last train traveling to Chestnut Hill West on a Monday night is normally scheduled to leave Market East at 11:47 p.m. The extended New Year's Eve late night train will give riders ample time to enjoy the spectacular fireworks display and make their way to the train station as the last train will leave Market East at 1:40 a.m.

The Convention Center head-house doors leading from Market Street (at 12th Street) to the Market East Station will remain open until 2:30 a.m. to accomodate New Year's Eve activities.

Riders traveling to New York City to see the ball drop in Times Square can also connect with SEPTA at the Trenton Transportation Center. For passengers taking early morning New Jersey Transit trains, SEPTA trains will depart from Trenton at 2:03 a.m., 3:30 a.m., 5:00 a.m. & 6:00 a.m.
