(Maybe the converse is also true, but I wouldn't know because I only turn to chrome when firefox doesn't work.)  https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__www.septa.org_schedules_rail_&d=DwIFaQ&c=gRgGjJ3BkIsb5y6s49QqsA&r=gd8BzeSQcySVxr0gDWSEbN-P-pgDXkdyCtaMqdCgPPdW1cyL5RIpaIYrCn8C5x2A&m=i8lPkBMuEDK6cUEBTT5-REXMT8OK9fEHBGk__l0HSbnoQbkHHMRG1Ks2lzAzVJpb&s=OLOXT5NGr6IAORcdHsRPRPXfkr_gAd9_nSa5VFLmPBw&e=  is an example of a site that firefox messes up for me.
