Share Bear posted:they added LTE to the N/Q/R over the course of the last year, but not at any of the adjoining transfer platforms (to the 4/5/6 for example), it's kinda odd I know a guy who works for the company that makes those timetable boards on the platforms, because they have advertising the deployment is tied up in those contracts

I went into my friend's office when I was out there and they had a prototype of the "public internet terminal" thing they're using to replace payphones, it's basically a giant video billboard with an android tablet stuck in the side of it

the only actual BRT is the tunnel in Seattle, cross traffic and its associated gridlock, rando pedestrians, people driving in the bus lane even though it's illegal, etc will keep it at slightly faster bus

I took MARTA a couple times, and it was pretty much the same as BART, even the Atlanta bus I took was OK which really surprised me.

fits my needs posted:my favorite bart of riding BART is arepeople who only ride during the work rush that can't handle when a homeless crazy person shits himself stinking up the old car and are too polite or something to move to the car over or call BART police. its pretty cool. old post but people don't call the cops because if you did they'd hold your train for at least 20 minutes at whatever stop the police showed up at

meatpotato posted:I saw an article about how Berlin is renovating three 1950s era subway trains, mostly to attract tourists to an underused line (but apparently it's much cheaper than buying new trains). They look cute. the best ubahn cars are the ones with the crazy camouflage seats and fake wood

as long as nothing inside the airport is broken like the airtrain or security newark is a deece airport and it's easy to get to the worst part of manhattan very quickly I once stayed at a hotel right near EWR at the end of a trip, it was like a depressing alternate universe [but $150 cheaper than staying in the city] plus the cabbie was super sketchy and tried to rip me off
