As mentioned with the Route 23 the same issues are there concerning the Route 56. SEPTA has a plan to purchase new cars and restore tracks, wires, and right of way along Erie Avenue. There has been some talk outside of SEPTA about moving Route 56 service to Wayne Junction where it would provide a connection with SEPTA's Regional Rail services.
SEPTA replaced two of the routes with their own bus service. Route 122 service was replaced by SEPTA's Route 91 in July 1982, after only one year of service. Route 91 was eliminated due to lack of ridership. Route 121 was replaced by SEPTA's Route 92 in October 1982. This service continues to operate today.
SEPTA's creation provided government subsidies to such operations and thus kept them from closing down. For the railroads, at first it was a matter of paying the existing railroad companies to continue passenger service. In 1966 SEPTA had contracts with the PRR and Reading to continue commuter rail services in the Philadelphia region. [15]

In 2021, SEPTA proposed rebranding their rail transit service as "SEPTA Metro", in order to make the system easier to navigate. Under this proposal, the Norristown High Speed Line was to be rebranded as the "M" (for "Montgomery", the county in which Norristown is located), with a purple color and numeric suffixes for service variants.
