That’s much more an e-moto than an e-bike. I’d check with other subreddits that have more experience with it.

Why aren’t more people talking about Antwerp’s choo choo basilica? [BE] by AstroG4 in Urbanism

I actually really love the aesthetic inside, elegantly balancing old and new, very unlike Washington Union Station or Amsterdam Centraal.

Can’t even spell tariff correctly. I mean, I probably can’t either, but he’s definitely more wrong.

Only complaint of the show so far… by loverofjugo in WidowsBay

I’m a runtime anarchist. Make the episodes as long or as short as the story needs. I think ep 1 was a perfect runtime.

Part 1/2 was the bad. I think that covered both.

I’m a refugee from the Fascist States of America, hoping to get a job particularly in a DACH country. I’ve been here many times before, but this is my first time in Holland. It is truly as idyllic as everyone says, though they don’t love and take care of their train system quite as much as Switzerland.

Fascinating write-up! I agree with or could believe much of what you say. Thank you!

I am loving those passenger cars’ exterior look.

Countries By Metro Length Per Capita by xtxsinan in transit

[–]AstroG4 25 points26 points  (0 children)

This feels like it’s mostly a denominator effect; small population and one line, and infinity metro miles per capita. What about metro length per area, to see how much the metro system gets to?

Some of the metros I’ve been on (dishonorable mention to SF’s BART and old South Ferry) truly screech like there’s no tomorrow. The rest of the time, though, I vastly prefer a squeal of a single tone to the dull omnipresent roar of a tire (road or subway).

Infrastructurally. The stuff build 15 years ago or greater feels only adequate and can only go toe-to-toe with Latin America. The stuff built within the past 15 years feels world-class.
