@Flighty Any way to add friends when someone's phone is stuck on iOS17?

Seems old versions can't read new invites, and new versions won't accept old invites, although existing friends remain…

In January, I finished riding every mile of Commuter/Regional Rail in the US.

Then @SMARTtrain extended their service to Windsor, CA.

I knew what I had to do.

Final time: 8h, 22 min

More like a racewalk than a speedrun covering Stockholm's entire Pendeltåg CR network in one go (…not that I know of any official attempts).

Haven't updated https://t.co/fqeNG0U41d yet, but bluesky also has the Oslo Metro and Tram completion posts, too!

Starting off my 30s in the most fitting way possible: a station opening on — of all things — the hometown system on which I've continued to serve as an advisory board member since my teens.

Welcome, Franklin Square! @RidePATCO

@2urbaneric1 If you look carefully, it's actually a 7x/week midday schedule ET-BOS, just different outer destinations without the shuttle trains (hence the times).

Best bet to explore on weekends is out on one branch, SRTA 9X btwn the two downtowns (<25 min!) and return on the other.

On December 15, I watched the Eagles-Packers game while eating beignets with friends in NOLA… hoping for what might become.

Although I could've done without my mother having a rather severe leg/ankle fracture, on Feb 9, it happened.

I feel like I should get bonus foamer points for not only wrapping up the US Commuter Rail network by taking NICTD to South Bend Airport… but then actually FLYING from there.

(Snow at CLT was not on the bingo card, either.)

From the Brightline Safety and Security Team: Railroad safety is a community wide effort. For everyone’s safety, never drive around crossing gates when they are down.

And now, @Metrolink ✅

[Jeff Kessler 🟦 @jeffk8]

Yeah, why not ride the entire newly-formed @metrolosangeles south K-Line (and the new C-line routing, too)?
