Now that’s a convenient transfer

Die Diskussion um den #Lobautunnel kocht wieder auf. Anrainer:innen und Unternehmen wünschen sich Entlastung der Südosttangente und der Ortsdurchfahrten 🚗💨. Verständlich – aber der Lobautunnel löst das Problem nicht. Er führt langfristig zu mehr Verkehr, mehr Staus und mehr Emissionen. Hear me out 👇

Here's one of Barcelona's famous superillas, or superblocks, on Rocafort-Consell de Cent. All of this used to be asphalt and space for moving and storing cars. Now it's green, quiet, calm, and safe.

This is Kankava street in Tbilisi, in an area that will hopefully soon turn into the “London Park Superblock”. For the second year now it is being reclaimed from cars during #EuropeanMobilityWeek - turned into a people-first space. Planters, outdoor seating - simple things, massive impact.

Sucks to be a Brit who doesn't pay for parking

Dreaming of a world where Streetview capture runs are timed with street redesign completions

Late-posting, but one of my favourite things every year is the Market Street lights.

Oh no Lake Constance is leaking stadtplan.wien.gv.at

Two of the extremely cute munkeys earlier today in Shimla

Long Way Home (from Shimla station, alt. 2,075 m) begins!

Mood

There's a miniature Glacier Express trainset running on the Kalka–Shimla narrow gauge railway 🥹

Don't mind me, I'm just celebrating

Folks- I made it (Onto a (non-AC) Indian Railways Sleeper Class car)

Literally by chance learned *so much* about life in rural villages in Rajasthan today, and how lowkey terrifying it is to ride a full-size camel (To be clear I wouldn't support an animal riding business, this wasn't a business or otherwise paid for)

Leaving Delhi for Jaipur on an Indian Railways Double Decker, my first long-distance train in India

Impressions from the way from the metro station to the Delhi S Rohilla long-distance train station

Tag yourself I'm the Bremen Metro

The DB-operated Namo Bharat trains sadly have almost no DB 'cookie' logos on them, but at least this 'Bolly Mop' robot does

Detroit People Mover Of The East (not really, I know)

Hot take we should all just speak Indian English

The dream

A 60 second cycle with only FIVE seconds dedicated to the next departing trains (in English) – the competition sure is fierce in the anglosphere, but those might be the worst rail passenger information displays I've ever seen (and there are *no other ones* on New Delhi station platforms)

Wir werden schrittweise entmündigt!

Delhi has a large fleet of electric busses, but they don't catch fire

For just ten euros, Delhi Metro lets you stop their trains anywhere you want

Ancient planes. Genuinely the best Not going to look up the safety record of this fleet

Quick voyage to India begins

Ugh okay which 20 should I pick then

Avant / Après la piétonnisation et végétalisation de cette partie de la Rue Mouffetard, décidée après un vote de consultation. La piétonnisation eut lieu dès 2023, les nouveaux pavés et les jardinières furent posés récemment en 2025. Enfin, il devrait y avoir des arbres plantés à la fin de l'année.

It's a beautiful morning in Zagreb! Welcome to the inaugural run on Slovenske železnice's new service from Ljubljana to Zagreb!

RIP to Vienna's tram panto city busses

Today's historic pic: A1 class tram no 248 on a Mont Albert bound route 42 at the Swanston Street safety zone stop in Collins St, Melbourne, January 18 1987. In 1993, route 42 combined with route 111 to become the 109 from Port Melbourne to Mont Albert. It was further extended to Box Hill in 2003.

As part of VDL's trade war surrender to Trump, the EU has promised to lower its vehicle safety & pollution standards. NGO @transenv.bsky.social calls it a "betrayal of all EU citizens" forcing "monster 🇺🇸pick-up trucks" into Europe that will increase pedestrian deaths.

Public transportation, even more gay than usual edition 🏳️‍🌈 🥰

Sorrento ZTL signage, featuring a digital display at the top indicating the ZTL is 'opened', and a dedicated sign at the very bottom with a phone number for ZTL inquiries

“NYC reigns as the U.S. [vehicle] noise-camera epicenter. It operates 10…Fines are $800 for a first violation, $1,700 for a second, and $2,500 for a third. The city has issued more than 2,500 tickets since 2021, though it has collected only about $550,000 of the roughly $2 million in fines.”

EAV, the S-Bahn operator in Naples, apparently set out to order two-car, six-door EMUs with as few seats as possible while not really optimizing for standing room and passenger flows, and it turned out a great success (Just go for all-longitudinal seating if crowding is such a concern, ugh)

Night train (iCn?) time ✨

What an extraordinarily safe bike crossing; I'm sure no cyclist accidents happen here

IC 74 'Fogaras', for some reason powered by Raaberbahn from Curtici 🇷🇴 to Budapest 🇭🇺 today

The future is bright 🇷🇴 🇪🇺

Another night, another night train, this time back again to where I came from last night 🌝 (IRN 1920 București Băneasa → Arad)

In the U.S., we go wild with paint, markings, and signs, and cars still park all over the bike and bus lanes. In Europe, even when the visual cues are much less subtle, illegal parking is rarer. What’s the difference? Enforcement.

I just love density

Saddened to report that the Romanian tradition of building extremely narrow tram stop platforms in roadway medians still seems to be alive and well even in București

Metrou București's Astra IVA are still in operation, even on weekends <3

Hot take: Trains should really have more cars than locomotives

I doubt the busses run with locomotives, but the CFR (Romanian Railways) website unironically has better seat maps for rail replacement busses than ÖBB's for ICE trains bilete.cfrcalatori.ro/en-GB/Train/...
