The Southeastern Pennsylvania Transportation Authority contains two major rapid transit lines; The Market–Frankford Line and the Broad Street Line, both of which were inherited from the former Philadelphia Transportation Company, and originally built by the Philadelphia Rapid Transit Company. Both lines are officially part of the City Transit Division. It also includes the Norristown High Speed Line (Route 100) an interurban commuter rail line between Norristown, Pennsylvania and Upper Darby Township, Pennsylvania, originally owned by the Philadelphia and Western Railroad, then acquired by the Philadelphia Suburban Transportation Company, which itself was originally the Philadelphia and West Chester Traction Company.
