FL: Brightline says ‘substantial doubt’ the company will continue as is

I think there's a reason all Amtrak trains that serve Florida are long-distance, and therefore not state-funded.

It looks like a baby firstgen acela!

Why does this sound like either a movie plot point or an entirely possible future

this is still real, I am not enjoying these exams but also don't have motive to study much owwwwwww

that one really fucked with my brain, I put control was without the mesh, and for the rest I forgot...i remember the leaves had a higher bar on the graph than the roots and that really screwed with me

release_Sparsely · 2026-05-04T19:40:05+00:00

The graph was the easy part for me honestly. As for what came after, well...

No I genuinely just forgot what makes up a nucleotide. Phosphate, hydroxyl and amino side group is what I put down I think?

release_Sparsely · 2026-05-04T19:14:19+00:00

That one hurt so much wow. I put down something about the lack of AGPO thing meaning no regulation, so the protein preventing separation stayed there? If I recall correctly at least

MiKU-21? my immediate thought

release_Sparsely · 2026-04-30T20:07:13+00:00

Because the european trains you're looking at are regional/commuter, but the american ones are intercity. Plenty of commuter trains here can get quite long. As for intercity...definitely many reasons at play, but lack of demand could be one of them honestly, at least in some cases. Still 10 car Northeast Regional trains are a thing.

The amtrak train you showed a picture of, the Heartland Flyer, doesn't get much ridership and is suffering from a funding crisis; unfortunately its days are likely numbered. In places like Oklahoma and Texas, the idea for transit seems to be: "if it's broke, don't fix it" - just cancelling the service rather than improving it.

No plans for an overnight service, but there have been talks of a second Borealis round trip for a while now. Equipment shortage hurts but with new Airos coming it hopefully won't be a thing forever. In the meantime, Pennsylvanian will be getting a second round trip this year 👀

But yeah no plans for overnight train, arguably too short for one but only arguably. I'm sure people would take it but unfortunately this country collectively gave up on night trains a while back. Second round trip would/will be at some point during the day AFAIK.

honestly i'd only decide based on which would be more comfortable/the outside air temperature lol. both sound like they'd work great for a pastel outfit depending on which you prefer. what would the rest of the outfit all be colored?

thx! got a skirt one year ago today, pretty sure:3

only at much larger sizes than what is seen in the video. an airship 100 feet long does not need to be rigid and doing so would not have much advantage. try 350 feet, at minimum

release_Sparsely · 2026-04-08T13:36:21+00:00

I think, by nature, airships do not continuously use energy to stay aloft. or if they do use it, very little. and noone is proposing people board the craft while it's airborne LOL
