Aerial trams can genuinely be the right technology for the job sometimes! That's definitely the case here in Portland, Oregon. youtu.be/LhOfiiWyzBM

Always good to have one of these uncut videos in my back pocket for when I'm not on the continent...

I'm finally riding the rest of the San Diego Trolley! It was America's first modern light rail system and it's excellent, besides one obvious flaw... youtu.be/e0-EDi4rXrQ

Did you know you can get from Canada to France without flying? It's not the France you're thinking of, but it's very much France... youtu.be/syMv05k7z8g

I guess if the argument is "rural people suck and don't deserve anything" then sure.

Ontario Northland in Canada is a fully government-owned bus company that serves SUPER rural areas and regularly fills up its buses thanks to great timetables and amenities. It's fully solvent and actually makes a bit more than it costs! Rural transit can and should be done well.

Megabus is totally GONE in the US and England! The entire thing is a bust!
You could cut Amtrak's long-distance routes and save some money, but you'd leave a lot of rural communities stranded and lose so much political goodwill. I can't imagine that would be worth it.

Given how much the company is downsizing, I wouldn't count on the idea that Megabus is profitable!

Megabus doesn't exist in the US anymore, but my experiences taking them in the US and Canada have been...I would say the default slightly crummy experience you'd expect from an intercity bus company, which is fine!

Nothing beats the time they locked us in the Denver bus station all night with our luggage locked up in a side room that that they couldn't access.

I've been on Greyhounds that have departed early with other passengers TELLING THE DRIVER that people got left behind, and the driver completely ignore them. So...yes.

Today, Minneapolis's Northstar Line is shutting down permanently. This video is the one time I rode it - three years ago - along with a discussion of its less-than-ideal bus replacements. youtu.be/XwtyJYZqi6U
My First (and Last) Trip on Minneapolis's Northstar Line
The one silver lining of this thing going away is that it got me to finally edit an over 3-year-old video!
