Steak-&-Bagel-Train--North-Broad-Street








As I was photographing this, a security guard from the adjacent building came out, "Hey, I didn't even see that! Somebody is going to burn his place down. I've got to ask him tomorrow what's up with that."

He also told me that a flag cannot be up at night, unlit. He said he had a flag on his porch, with a spot light shining on it.

I'm from Australia and I had to look up what this flag meant.

Seems as if the Philly Steak & Bagel Train is calling for a new revolution.

Hi Cine,

I'm going to incorporate that new revolution observation into my next text!
