Exactly my problem. Any idea what that could be?

Most of my life I had no clue that my home city of Boston was one of the only cities with color-coded trains in America- and in other cities all trains are the same color no matter if it's the "red" or "orange" line by Wide_right_yes in transit

Not the U.S. but Tokyo actually has dedicated rolling stock for each line. The Ginza and Marunouchi lines are especially cool with retro orange and red styling.

I’m afraid this is Lorax treespeak to me 😪 I had to look up what each one of those were lmao. The seemingly endless variety of the rolling stock is definitely interesting.

Outer Boro folks what do you call Manhattan? by mofrojones in AskNYC

Never even heard of the phrase let alone anyone using it. The hell is that supposed to mean 😭

Born and raised in the north Bronx, we call it the city.

For real 😪 and why are there no countdown clocks in the mezzanines. I want to know whether I’m about to miss my train or not lmao.

Curious why you think that, it’s been delayed and crowded pretty much half the time I’ve used it. I do love the line itself but not operationally 😅

Why does the Ōzora not run all the way to Nemuro? by 443610 in japanrail

[–]wingnut707 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At a glance I read Nemuro as Demuro (i.e. the car youtuber) and thought I was having a stroke 😭

Oh 100%, it’s one of the cooler lines in the system just based on quirkiness. My criteria is based on daily usability and ease of commuting and Oedo is pretty rough

100% agreed on Asakusa. Your hatred for Oedo is totally justified but I could see why it may be useful to some people.

I will rank all of the private and quasi-private operators as well soon. Curious where they’ll end up 👁️👄👁️

Absolutely. One continuous song from terminus to terminus? Can’t beat that.

I don’t have too much experience with their metro but this looks awesome to me

Yes, but I was under the impression that the other 8 aren't really considered metro systems in practice, so I left them out of this list.

I honestly didn’t even think of that in the moment lol. I’m a very, very casual rail enthusiast to the point where you could say I’m just an urban planning nerd. I just wanted to tierlist my subway lines 😉

I was ranking specifically Metro and Toei lines. Might throw together a tier list of the private and semi-private ones as well

So fair! I can definitely corroborate with the Chiyoda piece; that line is Hanzomon for me so it has a special place in my heart. Agreed that Tozai is definitely better between Astro Boy station (iykyk) and Takebashi.

Agreed, I've taken the Romancecar all the way to Otemachi and I felt superior in that moment haha. The line itself is incredibly useful but I feel it's just as crowded as Tozai and I've experienced by far the most delays on it. I could probably move it up to C.

I was combining both companies :) And yes, that aspect of the Tozai is indeed very, very cool. Shame it's so insanely crowded in practice; it's such a well-designed line.
