Narrative:

Called ground for taxi instructions. Was told to taxi to runway 9L via taxiway B1. Turned on the wrong taxiway, crossed the hold short line by 5 ft. The hold short line was old, worn, and hard to see. I was also not familiar with this airport. I asked for a progressive taxi just as I realized I took a wrong turn. There were no other aircraft on the taxiway at the time. Tower didn't make a big deal, just asked me to make a 180 degree turn and proceed to the correct taxiway.
