Incredible

The US DOT is trying to prevent New York City from implementing a busway on a corridor that serves 28,000 daily bus riders www.nyc.gov/html/brt/htm...

US DOT has already tried to kill congestion pricing, put pauses on 2nd Ave Subway & Gateway Tunnel, & took policing money away from NYC transit.

Apparently this was the first time ever an R62 (not R62A) has run on the 6

You couldn't ask for a better endorsement of Ballot Props 2-5 than Sliwa going on an unhinged rant about them. Is Adrienne Adams still sure she wants to hitch her wagon to that sinking ship?

You're hearing it more and more.

Sliwa lives in a rent stabilized apartment on the Upper West Side, he's not even from Staten Island!

ok here's my nyc policy idea: create the post of Chief Weirdo. The job goes to an iconic freak whose job it is to maintain our world-leading weirdo levels. Curtis Sliwa can be the inaugural officeholder

I appreciate Curtis Sliwa is a potentially endangered type of New Yorker: the weird tristate dork. Of course he has twenty cats and used to manage a McDonald's in the Bronx. I bet he also used to watch Mets games from that one train platform with a view of Shea Stadium, in a big raincoat.

The 6 fleet is entirely R62As. This one was borrowed from the 3

Good lord. Just got my second NIMBY mailer from Adrienne Adams opposing the ballot measures that streamline affordable housing.

This is likely illegal electioneering and definitely a waste of my taxpayer dollars being used to spread anti-housing propaganda

Hello R62 on the 6 train

The return of a beloved series this week on one of my most bizarre adventures yet! This is a real rollercoaster. youtu.be/Nsn_-x-nm00

tbh I'm shocked this wasn't just some image whipped up digitally

My experience wasn't even hostels – generally was local shops that signed up for some sort of bag check service

Especially in Europe baggage checking services are typically readily available (like hell, I was able to store my large bag in Blackpool, UK of all places, I'm sure in Germany etc. it's easier!) (Also wouldn't a hotel take a bag even before a room is ready?)

Did you know? Canadian Christmas is on the last Thursday of November

Why are we in favor of roadway expansion in The Bronx in TYOOL 2025?

Tables of new R&D spend between 1985-1989. Spending on research related to train and system design had been entirely zeroed out.

Table of R&D spend from 1972-1985. The wind-down begins in 1982.

UMTA R&D spend from 1972-1989. The amounts in the 1980s appear to be overstated as a lot of those projects were commissioned in the 1970s and were finishing up. Dollars are not adjusted for inflation.

New spend by the late 80s was down to $13m/yr, $3m/yr of which went into 'privatization' =>

The standard—and not totally incorrect—narrative is that the US basically abandoned transit after WWII, but there was a real revival underway in the 1970s that stalled out by the mid-1980s as the political winds shifted. Things have improved since, but we've never fully recovered that ambition.

One could also argue HBLR is there in HudCo...

Especially with the headways on all the branches being like 2-3 tph. Very much feels like a tiny version of Melbourne or something not something like even Tyne and Wear

Suburban railway!

True!

Isn't one line of Athens' metro quite old?

Sioux City, Iowa, Baltimore, off the top of my head?

And Liverpool had an El!
