If 16 year olds at Six Flags can oversee trains launching from 0 to 128 mph in 3.5 seconds every couple of minutes, then surely the adults at MBTA can figure it out as well

I feel they should repave before applying paint to a road that looks like that

Whats crazy is that Warren has a similar number of floors

My bet is its going to be implemented on LIRR and Metronorth the same way Charlie was implemented on commuter rail.

Yeah NYC uses the same turnstiles from 50 years ago that have token slots and metrocard swipers. They have no plans to change them AFAIK. PATH uses turnstiles but theyre newer and suck in Metrocards instead of swiping them (as the MBTA ones were designed to do)

Nah I like the idea. A 15 year lifespan is idiotic. Afaik, Pittsburgh and NJT use the same gates.

Dont forget the soccer stadium (ie Revolution Drive)

Id vote for Chelsea. Unlike other extensions that have been proposed for decades, that one happened like magic.

This is why I only buy Toyota

Theyre spending very big bucks (71 million) redoing the station with the current geometry. https://www.masstransitmag.com/rail/infrastructure/press-release/21108522/new-jersey-transit-nj-transit-construction-begins-on-nj-transits-new-elizabeth-station

The stuff theyre doing with buses makes it seem like theyre actively trying to get in as much pollution as possible

Nah Ive ridden the California system many times. The only recline is when they stick a national car at the back. Those seats are much comfier and have a deep recline. Thats infrequent though. The website is incorrect. Crappy photo, but the seats are all basically bolted together with hard...

The better get reclining seats though. The Chicago pic doesnt look like they recline. The two story California cars dont have recline either.

You can see how the new and old compare in these test trains

Oh youre talking about the new Acela. No, the new regular trains. Last page you can see a picture of it with the San Joaquins branding. Thats what this news is about, more of these.

Theyre supposed to start on the San Joaquin this summer

Whats the stub pointing up/right?

These are good trains. I hope to try one in California this year

Interesting they didnt look at NJ, which AFAIK runs the only east coast PoP system on the 3 light rail lines. (Not on buses)

That went up fast.
