If in NYC….

New Yorkers fought to free ourselves from a Mad King in 1776 and you’re goddamn right we will do it again in 2025

Morning is off to a good start

The FX2 is a nice antidote to cold hands

Recent trains: Panama City, São Paulo, San Francisco Lately every time I log into Bluesky, it's wall to wall bad news, so I don't really have much else to say right now.

Every time I get blocked for suggesting that a bit more housing density might be good, I know I'm hitting a nerve. Maybe things aren't okay the way they are?

Today, in transit. PDX -> DCA, no cars needed.

Late night Caltrain feelings

LA has subway mosaics, who knew?

PlayStation... bus stop? #LA

While I'm correcting misinformation spreading rampantly on X, the MTA is not phasing out yellow/orange seats next year. They're starting to phase them out, but it's going to take years for all R211s to arrive. The R262 contract - which will replace the 1/3 cars - hasn't been put out to bid yet.

At LA Union Station, you're allowed to sit down. Nice work, LA.

Read books, Seattle. Libraries save lives.

What a wonder initiative. Spreads the cheer of the season, especially amongst people who have to work or are online in Thanksgiving. Transit obviously tacitly tolerates this event as they’re multiple locations, but I’d love to see them sponsor it officially. This should be a tradition!

Happy Thanksgiving from the city bus. Grateful that I don't have to drive myself around today.

The NYC subway may be held together with tape, but it's still the best in the US

And the bike share station modal filter 😍😍

did you know there’s a slide in #montreal that connects two streets? (saint-christophe / sherbrooke)

Queens NY

I can't wait for the congestion charge to come for these guys

Moynihan train hall is such an improvement over the old Penn Station, I just wish we had seating in the main hall

Amtrak is the best way to travel between DC and NYC

Rolling across DC on a quiet Sunday night, Metro does it better

Images I can feel after so many years riding the Metro

Riding on the Metro. This is much more mellow than driving in DC.

some cool bike/bus infrastructure in DC!

This is Charlotte’s Blue Line. The light rail actually enhances the rail trail, and people love it. Great job, CLT! Let’s go, ATL!
