I ain't gonna front: I like trains. More specifically, subway trains. It just appears to be a jumbled mess of connections (and missed connections), tracks extending forever. The chariot of the people. Whether it was my first system:
The TTC or the other systems in which I've grown to love: Hamburg's sprawling
HVV, Chicago's beautiful
CTA, or the
ZOO of Berlin. I always feel that I'm with
my people when I'm on the train or bus. My latest love affair is with the great Queen herself: NYC's
MTA. Oh, is there somewhere you don't go?
So I'm a transit geek. There, I said it.
I'm not alone. Here's the page for the
TTC's geek page, and better yet, my latest call to arms:
the straphanger (check the Rider's Diaries for a topic that is causing much debate: Should the N Train skip 49th St at all times? I say yes. Yes it should).
