Great job to the team for doing this. it was always difficult to show it to an employee in the booth because most of the time they weren't there lol. But all the same its nice to have this feature now AND a big bonus is that its done in house and not by a separate contractor that would charge a crap

As a Marylander who lives near a MARC train site. I find this dumb. Just buy electric trains that run on the catenary. But also as someone who knows that the NEC is owned by Amtrak, i can understand the reason behind it. Because MARC and i'm guessing MBTA both pay for the use of track and catenary.

Well to me it means people at the MTA need to grow some balls and make our transit better then. Instead of wasting money on stupid crap.

They won’t work. People don’t care, they’ll still drive and block the bus lanes. What is needed is a dedicated bus way thru the city

ABOUT TIME YOU ALL DID SOMETHING USEFUL!

Service hasn’t improved anyway. I don’t see the point of getting feedback if the MTA doesn’t listen to anything. It’s a waste of time.

Emily! You are a really useful engine!
Jokes aside, Emily is a great character and I agree her cgi self is better than her model version. It just feels better.

Time for fleet replacements…. That may actually work, since the BMORE BUS PLAN IS A LOAD OF BULL CRAP and DOESNT WORK…

Well…. He’s going to hell for spending money on something pointless. Again… πŸ™„

Yeah let’s invest in counties and cities that don’t need it. Yea let’s spend 1 billion in md taxpayer money on something pointless. Why not invest in schools, infrastructure, better public transit, invest in Baltimore city? But no, let’s invest in a stupid dome for no reason.

Thank you STB for denying UP from becoming bigger and making railroading less tedious.

Greatest film of all time!
Well done to @cartycinema.bsky.social and team for a great film and for restoring my memories and passion for Thomas and friends and for reminding me why I became a railfan.

When is the ”team” gonna ride on the 62 for β€œfeedback” then?
Why is it that downtown bound routes get priority over county routes? I call that favoritism.

none since the MTA isn't reliable. BRING FORWARD AN RTA FOR BALTIMORE.

i'll be happy once all the new trains are in service, LightRail Link finally gets upgraded with the same new stuff as the purple line and finally we get heritage units for MARC as god intended. But that'll only be a dream. Until mta grows some balls to hop to it.
