the other benefit narrow gauge has is that once we nationalize The Boring Company when confiscating musk's assets, the tunnels aren't big enough for real trains but...

yeah, my ex always wanted it to have moscow style "concentric rings with metro/interurban spokes"

yeah but i hate brt because it's easier to kill >_>

10.03.2026 03:27 ๐Ÿ‘ 1 ๐Ÿ” 0 ๐Ÿ’ฌ 1 ๐Ÿ“Œ 0

but with brt and Metro North expansion instead of trams

it used to be the only non-ferry connection between east Boston and Boston without having to go all the way around

like it needs way better spacing but its actually pretty central otherwise

the blue line isn't actually as bad as it looks on the subway map because it's pretty linear development

sounds a lot like CT cities and Metro North

i don't remember what the proposed solution is but a lot of the other routes just go "we didn't actually need those middle two lanes anyway" and just have signal priority intersections, but I'm in Somerville so don't keep up as much as I should

right but now imagine if it had modern streetcars, just 60% smaller
