It will be running, but heavily delayed, detoured, and possibly be cutback entirely before Center city. Your best bet is to take the el to 69th, then transfer to the 65, last bus leaves at 12:20 from the south terminal, leaves approximately every 30 min. Note that SEPTA operators will call out like everyone else, and they don’t have enough replacements, so there probably will be some trip cancellations. Also a chance that the el skips stops in CC. Worst that happens is Uber though. You can check the 9/61 just in case, but chances are they’ll be suspended for all or part of the route. They really should be running extra trains, but no one from SEPTA would think of that because non of them ride the system…

If you can afford it, I highly recommend an e-cargo bike to carry your groceries. And yeah, the aldi at fairmount station is great. Would recommend taking the bus though (maybe the 61, depending on where you live) if you’re carrying more than one or two bags of groceries. Fairmount station is not currently ADA accessible, and if you’re going to take the spur, it can get a little creepy down there.
