This is weird, the RFP for SEPTA to buy new trolley buses has been extended a lot, it's now due in December, the original due date was in June
Also, New Flyer and Solaris are the interested builders according to the attendance of the pre-bid meeting

SEPTA looking for consultants for the Silverliner VI procurement. Needed to help receive and grade out proposals, design and execute facilities upgrades, and basically be able to fly out and make sure the builder isn't doing anything boneheaded that'll mess things up

The new New Avengers run references how a bunch of Marvel's heroes canonically have a cosmic scale body count after the 2013-2015 Avengers run (and Marvel editorial's decision to ignore the fact that storyline ends with its events being undone and just continue as if they weren't)

Well, obviously, the solution here is to enforce my proposal for ending the balkanization of Greater Wildwood and institute One Big Wildwood (OBWW)

Here's how to turn it off.

So anyway, that just leaves the Broad Street Line and the P&W waiting for their fleet renewals
BSL could be any number of subway platforms. The P&W is going to be the interesting one whether they end up wanting to automote it, adapt something, or buy something goofy from Stadler or whoever

Found a YouTube channel that's been digitizing film reels one of which was someone filming the last day of service to Reading Terminal. Imagine that station approach nowadays had we not gotten the tunnel

"Your honor, this cannot possibly be pertinent razzing as regards this trial"
Defense tells judge they want to question Lairmore about 'gag gifts' he received from fellow officers after the alleged assault, including a Subway sandwich plush toy and a patch that (unless I misheard) said 'Felony Footlong.'
Prosecutors object. Defense argues they reflect CBP 'state of mind.'

A Pennsylvania Fair Share Amendment, you say? Ah, yes, that does sound good
Yass joined Comcast and dozens of other corporations, foundations, and individuals in backing Trump’s controversial project to construct a ballroom where the East Wing of the White House once stood.
Jeffrey Yass, Pa.’s richest man, donated at least $2.5 million to Trump’s White House ballroom
Jeffrey Yass, a GOP megadonor, is also a major investor in ByteDance, TikTok's parent company, and he could benefit from a deal to keep the social media app in the United States.

I think they focused on problems with ridership scale in this, but there's also problems with the scale of maintenance. Like SEPTA can probably roll microtransit into their bus maintenance scheme because it's just buses, but CamdenGo probably has to go back to the dealers who sold them the cars

Illinois will effectively eliminate parking minimum requirements in ~all of Chicago and much of its suburbs thanks to the transit funding bill that passed last night.
Also contains parking reform! This is a preliminary map of Chicagoland based on the People Over Parking Act provision.
It would also apply downstate though!
