A new onboard sign inside a Caltrain EMU  indicating the direction to the restrooms. The blue and white sign reads β€œRESTROOMS” with translations in Spanish and Chinese, and includes an upwards arrow. Below the text is an accessibility symbol featuring a person and a wheelchair icon.

A three-panel comic with fat pixelated lines and sloppy coloring.
In the first frame, a doberman wearing a yellow t-shirt says "I like trams."
The second frame shows him sitting in a tram looking out the window with his hands folded in his lap. The caption says, "I like riding them."
The third frame shows him observing a yellow and white tram from the side of the street. It is a Tatra KT4 with added low-floor section. The caption says, "When I'm not, I like to watch them go by."

πŸ“£Β BART riders, we’re here to help! ⛑️

After a major fire suspended service and BART reached out when other apps weren't showing closures, our GTFS wiz Sara swooped in to fill the alert gaps. Up-to-date open data means up-to-date riders, no matter how they plan their journeys πŸ’š

In California, we dream big β€” and despite Washington's outrageous attacks, our @cahsra.bsky.social high-speed rail is becoming a reality.

While we've broken ground on our transformative rail project here in California, Texas' high-speed rail has been a failure to launch.

The opening of @oceanbeachpark.org today was incredible

the past couple months have been really rough both in my personal life and with everything that's been going on at work and at the federal level

seeing the park that so many friends worked on in a celebration of joy is going to keep me going

A year ago I was asked if I would be willing to run a ballot proposition to get free, unlimited public transit access for all UC Berkeley students.

Today, BayPass passed with 90.1% approval 🚎🚊
