So, a large protest against ICE in Portland with unions, doctors, nurses, kids, a bunch of everyday people, totally peaceful, was just broken up by ICE with a barrage of teargas.
I don't really know where we go from here or how we get there. But this already is fucking bad.

For the 82nd FX Policy and Budget meeting today; did anyone else find it weird that they took public comment at the end after the committee got the briefing and gave their thoughts?

Looks like Sound Transit will be purchasing three Brookville streetcars from Portland, to go into service on Tacoma's T Line, in place of the existing Skodas.

We used to build MAX lines and now we’re debating whether we can afford paint for bus lanes bikeportland.org/2025/11/07/t...
TriMet says full bus lanes on 82nd are up to project partners
Here's why our transit agency is opting for less transit.

Finally seeing the effects of having a more fully staffed operator roster and not canceling runs daily, as was the case early in the summer.

Additionally they are replacing some very worn out OCS from Sunset to West Portal, would be a lot of single tracking.

I remember 44 and 45 were sitting at Sunset for upwards of 20 minutes with all the westbound trains getting sent.

The tunnel is actually the only section which is signaled for reverse running with its own route codes and they’ve done single tracking before (I’ve done it WB in the EB bore!), but that was only at night and even then it caused major delays as clearance is still given manually by control.

I believe the lot/empty field on the northwest corner of Lombard and the MAX is owned by BURA now and is planned for redevelopment: www.beavertonoregon.gov/1669/Lombard...

Scandals doesn’t have the full street for their pride block party as usual; apparently “permitting was too hard”.
Something is deeply broken at @pbotinfo.bsky.social these days.
