Nice!

"Bus speeds also increased after the tolls were turned on. The Manhattan-bound B39 bus, which crosses the Williamsburg Bridge, ran 28% faster compared to a similar January week last year. Other buses like the SIM24 and the M50 saw increases in speeds, as well."

hi my partner knows how to touch computers so now we're on self-hosted instance so i guess here's my updated #introduction! ✨
i'm sam and work as a #science #teacher in #denver #colorado and i live with my partner, aurora (@celestiallavendar@icedoatmilk.coffee), and our #cat, cheeto 😺
Honestly, these days i am just trying to constantly learn more and read more and do more and explore new hobbies, especially being an #urbanist (i'm obsessed with #publictransit) and #actuallyautistic (meaning i'm too burnt out to actually do things)
anyways, i'd love to make more #friends so feel free to follow or talk to me, especially if you're also a queer chaos gremlin too ✌🏻


Beware of politicians drawing lines on maps. Always.

John Tory’s SmartTrack, imagined as 13 new stations along GO tracks open for business in 2021, has now shrunk *again* to just 3 stations, maybe open by 2029.

So we ran into an exhibit of old timey trams on the Szabadság Bridge. I took some photos for all y'all who followed me for the training tram pictures 😆

This one was made in 1908 and restored in 1987.

611 wood frame trame, type S
Manufactured in 1908 in the Schlick factory
Altogether 130 trams like this were made
This car was salvaged in 1975 and restored in 1987
Photo of an old wood frame tram, painted brown, white and orange, with the number 611 on the front. Doors are a waist-high metal lattice that open and close by hand. In the background part of the green metal bridge structure is visible, and behind it Gellért Mountain.
Photo of the inside of the tram, drivers window. Very few parts, one bell button, two hand cranks, wood frames on the windows. Beyond, the bridge and the mountain are visible.
