Passengers evacuated after SEPTA R3 train fire

A SEPTA R3 train en route to West Trenton had a minor fire at about 6:25 last evening in the air-conditioning unit of one car and passengers were evacuated at the Langhorne station, according to SEPTA spokesman Richard Maloney.

Maloney said no injuries were reported to SEPTA and the passengers were transferred to another train. The R3 line was reopened shortly thereafter, Maloney said. - Inquirer Staff
