Start a Love Train. Love Train.

Did you find love on SEPTA? They want to hear from you.

From Philly.com:

SEPTA officials announced a Valentine's Day-inspired contest yesterday that they're hoping will inspire people from all over Philadelphia to join hands and start a love train.

They're looking for stories of couples who found love on SEPTA, and the best story wins a chartered ride on a special El train.

The winners get a ride on a special six-car El that will take you through beautiful West Philadelphia to see the Mural Arts "Love Letter" murals, and then quickly turn you around and bring you back to Center City for a champagne reception at 1234 Market St.

It sounds pretty cheesy, but I think this is a cute idea. A ride through West Philadelphia doesn't sound terribly romantic at first, but how often do you get a chance to ride the El with your sweetheart without panhandlers and rowdy high schoolers bothering you?

Submissions can go to shoyos@septa.org until February 1. The winner will be announced on February 5.
