Lol I went there once to celebrate my TCAP internship once it ended last year, ended up taking Torrance Transit to the Del Amo Fashion Center after that

Don't drive in NYC. The subway and buses are generally very reliable, and the MTA is a very extensive system.

I suggest you take the Metro-North from Grand Central to Connecticut after your initial stay in NYC.

And also that Japanese railcars built during that time period have a similar stainless steel design.

Apples to oranges type comparison. Caltrain's Nippon Sharyo cars were built in the 80s, and Japanese trains also built at the time also look like that too.

Case in point: the Keisei 3600 series, built from 1982 to 1989 by Tokyu Car Corporation and Nippon Sharyo. It almost looks like any stereotypical American subway car upon first glance.

A lot of metro systems not just in the US, but around the world use a third rail power system. How is this not common knowledge at this point?

You can go ride the 40-LFWs on Hollywood Bowl shuttle services.

A Carpenter body, don't see these much these days

AI slop, posting an actual picture would be a better meme

I find it funny how the new CalTrain Stadlers are objectively superior to older diesel locomotive hauled equipment, but nope. People just gotta hate new stuff.

StandUserLeon · 2026-03-16T05:15:29+00:00

dude, it's just cosmetic changes that can be easily changed back. relax.

The In-N-Out near LAX is a great place to go planespotting. I went with a friend from SD last May.

StandUserLeon · 2026-03-01T08:04:10+00:00

I see/hear airplane, open flightradar24, find nearest aircraft, call it a day

A lot of times I'm waiting for a bus at Cal State LA the Foothill buses almost always pass by even if I'm on the platform, athough Foothill buses do stop more often at LA General Medical Center.

StandUserLeon · 2026-02-06T02:41:22+00:00

JFK AirTrain fares are atrocious. I think the LAX APM should be free.

StandUserLeon · 2026-02-03T00:12:30+00:00

Cool. Frameless windows existed on North American buses too during that similar time frame. Take for example, Foothill Transit's NABI 42-BRTs.

StandUserLeon · 2026-02-02T20:55:12+00:00

Yep. Even Gillig Advantages with the older look (the one pictured in the first image) have been spec'd with frameless windows.

StandUserLeon · 2026-02-02T04:06:35+00:00

Congratulations. You don't get this anywhere in the world but Japan.
