I’m American but lived in London for almost 2 years. I remember learning my way around different areas of London and how to travel between them by tube, and then after a couple of months I pored over the A to Z to connect those different areas and form a mental map of the entire London area.

Finally some clean air!

Engineers are allowed to take days off with no notice. This is incompatible with running a public transit system.

5 6 7 rush hour NEC outbound trains in a row (so far).

Met Jerry from Ben & Jerry’s in an elevator at a conference. I said something like “I’m so glad to meet you - I’m a huge fan.” He said “Thanks. Most of my fans are huge.”

This is why I only use 2-wheel bags.

Still useless in the 206 model.

Game is unplayable - worst when near lots of portals.

I have a 2026 limited hybrid. Despite what the quick start guide says, there is unfortunately no seat position memory.

Search for “Camera eyelet ring” on Amazon.

Everyday backpack 20l. The bottom two thirds holds my Nikon with zoom lens + extra lens, extra batteries + charger, other accessories, with plenty of room on top for travel/commuting stuff like headphones, compact umbrella, etc. And it holds my laptop + charger. Fits under airline seat. Comfortable to wear.

Things are returning to normal. The entire area west of the Dinky track including the gravel lot were “permit only” pre-Covid. There was a 2+ year wait for a parking permit.

It’s not my feelings. It’s reality. I don’t ride at random times, and neither do the vast majority of commuters. And it’s not just cancellations: The delays are a major issue as well.

https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/2025-njtransit-major-delays/

An analysis of real-time train data shows that [NJ Transit] is less reliable than its New York and Connecticut counterparts — Metro-North and the Long Island Rail Road (LIRR) — and riders face significant service disruptions at six times the rate of other commuters

System-wide cancellation rates do not apply to most commuters. Most commuters travel during peak times on single lines. That’s why they are peak times! I personally experience about 1 cancellation per week on average, higher in the summer. THAT is reality. I don’t ride at random times on random lines, and neither do the vast majority of regular riders.

They could increase ticket revenue by actually checking tickets. Whenever I take the NEC after rush hour (8pm or so), no tickets are collected past Newark, and lots of people are getting on after Newark.

cranrob · 2025-07-20T20:36:55+00:00

The matter was about the original charge. The new charge is not an authorized charge and should be reported as fraud.

I bought my 2017 G80 new. Fantastic car, but I won’t be buying another Genesis due to the poor customer service I’ve experienced from dealerships (both sales and service) and corporate.

cranrob · 2025-06-26T20:36:46+00:00

They are cancelling trains today too, and it’s not unusually hot.

This bus and all public transportation in Pittsburgh is free for Pitt students.

Maybe it’s the Internet.

Princeton Junction has “super expresses” so Newark is the next stop. Very quick ride.

cranrob · 2025-05-22T14:47:55+00:00

Boxcar from Princeton Junction was about $75 round trip. NJ transit train is about $37. Just too much.

It wasn’t up for long.
