A wheelchair will fit down the aisle of one of these two vehicles. One of those two vehicles is subject to ADA accessibility requirements to get federal funding. One of those two vehicles doesn't have to conform to any of those regulations and still gets federal funding.

So apparently one of the Teslas broke down in the LVCC tunnel and now everything behind it is now stuck from going any further until that one vehicle can move again. It's like having multiple individual vehicles is a bad thing and isn't adaptable to change at all...

Ignoring the stupid argument of the revenue argument to make money, if you were to buy a base Tesla Model 3 for $41,990 today with the $600M op budget, that would only get you 14,289 M3s. MTS's ridership alone in FY22 was 66,968,400. How the fuck do you rationalize that.

Where are the upsides to this system? WHERE???? They can't reroute around broken down vehicles because all the tunnels are unidirectional and it's not like they have a signalling system that they could make safe rerouting happen in a bidirectional way.

If removing the second floor in a Gallery Car doesn't compromise the structural integrity of the car itself to the point where it doesn't raise any flags with the FRA then I see no issue in doing other one off fun cars for Metra like...

I swear every time I get in a Metra bike car it looks different. Now it resembles a bizarre gymnasium.

The lack of reveal parties for rolling stock in the US is so lamenting considering how many man hours are being put towards making these things for them to come to fruition.

110 mph is faster than the previous top speed of the line which was 90 mph, and is higher speed than the normal FRA allowed track speed across the us which is 79 mph. Therefore it is called higher speed rail.

Forever burned with the idea that MARTA is going to be getting better rolling stock than the CTA next year (expected) in every conceivable way.

The U.S. has plenty of drinking water — it's simply in the wrong place. We can just move it, right? Not exactly.

According to @CaltransHQ asst. dep. director Kyle Gradinger, problems with the performance of hydrogen trains are a “Twittersphere exaggeration” and that testing for Caltrans-purchased FLIRTs are performing “as well as we expected, if not better.”

hmmmmmmmmmm I wonder what the solution to that overcrowding could be... It's Automation of the blue line, running more trains per hour, and PSDs. That's the answer.

[Special Note] Some Blue Line trains may be experiencing overcrowding. We're running as much service as possible but some may need to wait longer for a train. More:

I know I'm not the first one to say this but at 5'10" I straight up don't fit in Delta Economy Class seats on any of their planes and the 2-hour flight from ATL to ORD is right at the limit of how far I want to fly like this.

If there's anything that the world as a whole should take from the opening of Honolulu's Skyline (HART) and Montreal's REM it's that automated trains are cool and more should be built.

@sweatystartup @RampCapitalLLC @Jason I'm buying the most largest and heaviest vehicle on the road. People say Tesla is the safest, they're right about single car accidents but wrong about getting hit. Gotta protect against everything when your in a 265,000+ lb vehicle who runs around the crossing gates.

It's quite incredible to see what an agency is doing currently with no state funding. It really shows how much the high capacity design of a GCM can be this flexible.
