3. Usually route 195 is the dividing line
I'm about 2 miles north of it, so it's very interesting. I've gotten cheers and flack for wearing my Yanks sweatshirt.

4. I'm glad I'm deep into Phillies territory
We have some NY transplants but they know better right now.

5. Its an Amtrak series
http://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/phillies-vs-yankees-means-its-an-amtrak-series-66697427.html

"In addition to fans, the Yankees and Phillies players will also be traveling to the World Series by train just as their predecessors did when the teams first met in the 1950 World Series. This year the Phillies and Yankees will be traveling via chartered trains, just as professional teams from all of the major sports have this year. During fiscal year 2009 Amtrak operated 32 sports charters including six for Major League Baseball teams. These chartered trains allow players and coaches to travel in a relaxed atmosphere before and after their games."
