POV: Your dreams after you got food poisoning on a sleeper train in Morocco.

Hi @RM_Transit

[Caleb (Classy Whale) @thatclassywhale]

Most people can't do math very well, and if they could society would be significantly better off.

(Less pretentious opinion: This isn't people's fault for being "bad at math," it's just that most people weren't taught well)

[Caleb (Classy Whale) @thatclassywhale]

@RM_Transit I have footage!

[Caleb (Classy Whale) @thatclassywhale]

@RM_Transit It's in my video this week...you started explaining the Moroccan railway network to me in my dream and it was really trippy.

[attractive wastrel @UrbaneUrban]

the liberties have been sitting in Philly for so long that they’ve been tagged. wonderful.

[Caleb (Classy Whale) @thatclassywhale]

A welcome change!

Oh there's a new feature to the @PGHtransit app! For folks that pay per ride, it appears we won't have to buy individual tickets before boarding anymore!

Also, looking at the terms and conditions, it appears there's something called a "ReadyFare Card". Does anyone have one yet?

@NYTransitMuseum Is that Lower Bay on the TTC Line 2?

[Caleb (Classy Whale) @thatclassywhale]

It shouldn't be that weird for adult rail fans to also still enjoy Thomas. Many of us grew up on the show, and Awdry was kind of the ultimate train nerd with LOTR level world building. I personally love the branch of the fandom that treats the NWR kinda like a real life railway!

@Vincente22films @starlightfan02 Idk I think for little Caleb, the realism definitely played a part in my enjoyment. The fact that conflict in the early stories is centered around things that could be real incidents on real railways was so much fun to me as a Strasburg regular.

[Caleb (Classy Whale) @thatclassywhale]

@BrandTran Second this! Had to make a few trips up there and it was more than a little frustrating

[Caleb (Classy Whale) @thatclassywhale]

@Nictrain123 Can we please have a story where Annie and Clarabel are joined by a third coach with accessibility features because, I don't know, a little boy with cerebral palsy wants to go to the circus or some other typical Thomas fare?

[Caleb (Classy Whale) @thatclassywhale]

@64_streetcar Now THAT'S...
