While NY is considering mandating two-person trains, the DC Metro not only already operates with one person, but recently reactivated its automatic train operation system.
Now, continuing to follow best practices, Metro has announced plans to move towards driverless trains.

This project is good, even if it feels a bit silly to spend this much time and money building a new electric rail line if they're not going to run it at least every hour.
I definitely recommend checking out Keith's YouTube channel for more great videos!

Check out this 1923 transit plan commissioned by the Chicago City Council. We use to be insanely ambitious. A network like this would've supported Paris-level population densities.
It's never too late!

I’ve always had more faith in the party than it deserves, but at this point, it’s a bunch of feckless dinosaurs so unprepared to take up the mantle of fighting authoritarianism and with the political astuteness of a rock. Awful.
I'm hearing the same thing. Dems are nearing a surrender. I'm shocked. Largest protest in history + best election night in years + polling showing we're kicking their ass in public opinion. And now Dems may cave.
It ain't over til it's over, so please do call if you've got a Dem senator.

Sounds like the squishes in the senate caucus are ready to pull the plug with no ACA changes. This is real. If you want to register your opinion you shld call yr senator in the next hour. They not only want to reopen w/nothing. They want cover from their colleagues who still want to hold out.

Cuomo championed and won another prize environmentalist wish-list items including closure of the Indian Point Nuclear Power Plant in the Hudson Valley and blocking gas pipelines. 6/

this is why I think Matt Yglesias’ stance that we shouldn’t talk about anything other than healthcare is insane
the average American doesn’t yet realize that Trump has created a Gestapo. Democrats need to talk about it and raise awareness of videos like this rather than just ignore it.

Here’s a disturbing video from Evanston of a federal agent hitting a man on the ground as people yell that he can’t breathe.

Did you know extending Metro North service to Albany, which will bring commuter rail service to many communities along the Hudson River, is bad actually?
Give me a break. Rep. Stefanik voted to give billionaires even more money with our tax dollars. These people are deeply unserious.
