Hi! My name is Aleu (yes, like the movie), I talk about urbanism and transportation in my home country of Brazil, to try bring awarness of what's going on around here. Hope you like what you see!

She/Her - Speak 🇧🇷🇺🇸🇪🇸
Pinned
I'm here today to make an announcement.
To cut the yapping, I'm trans.
I've had these feelings for about 3 years now, and I've finally decided to come out.
My new name is Aleu (e is silent), and pronouns are she/her.
I'm open for any sort of questions on this topic
I need someone to explain to me what ICE is because I don't trust search engines anymore

Tri-axle buses are my favorite breed of buses, even if their chassis tend to snap

Also the weird suburban railway system, HÉV, with 4 lines that are disconnected from one another as well as the national railway.
None of them terminate near central Budapest except H5 with its tunnel.
But it's these weird green loafs that make me love it

Something we don't talk nearly enough is that Budapest metro line M1 used to have a surface section up until the 1970s

Before we go further into political discussions, I'd like to mention that, Venezuela is the 2nd country with most metro systems in Latin America
I will not elaborate further on my point

Some big announcements are coming, get ready y'all

Over a year since I've been to Santiago, I still can't take that place off my mind

Funny how a gas and petroleum focused journal is talking about Curitiba's new DRT line and going against the construction of a metro or train

Nada de metrô, trem ou ônibus: cidade brasileira vai usar bonde digital 100% elétrico que circula sem trilhos e alcança até 70 km/h

In your area, in a transit center, do you pay the fare when you enter the transit center or when you enter the bus?

The curitiba BRT manages to have a higher capacity and be faster than most light rail systems in the U.S and Canada.
Skill issue or poor planning?

To be more specific it was on the 942 line on the B and D variants, the busiest variants of the local version of line 943.
These lines connect some of the most important transit centers in the city, but there's a lot of demand for people to disembark along the route
So basically, 2 months ago I emailed my city's department of transportation asking them to put articulated buses on a very busy line that got exclusively standard buses. They've since done that and I'd like to inform you that ridership has increased on the line since!

Perhaps the most promising thing about the Monon Corridor is that it'll open a whole new world for new electrified passenger services in disused railways.
Because if Northern Indiana can do it, why can't California? For example.
Babe, wake up: the South Shore Line posted a test train timelapse video of the new Monon Corridor, dashing through the snow on the new electrified route set to open in the 1st quarter of 2026! ⚡️🛤️

My city of Jundiaí has roughly 600k people and sits between the 2 most important cities in the state.
In the past 5 or so years we've been experiencing a huge population growth as people leave the bigger cities (São Paulo and Campinas) to move here.
However the infrastructure didn't grew +

Line 2 of Santos light rail system is finally here!
I'm happy to announce that the new paint scheme is horrible, trolleybus service should return soon and now it finally reaches the city center

A thing that has forever bothered me in regional rail systems in Anglo America, is their seating layout.
Here's a comparison between LIRR and CPTM. When you see a train with just seats, it's obviously more comfortable, but would you take it in rush hour?
Like, where do you stand?

FurFest has a map for their transport system, my city of nearly 600 thousand people doesn't
When will furries overtake the Brazilian government?
It's almost time to hop aboard the FurFest Transit Network!
First time passenger? Need a refresher? M.F. Raccoon is here to help:

Fun fact:
The extension of CPTM line 7 between Francisco Morato and Jundiaí is operated basically as a courtesy, since every station beyond FM is part of a different metro area.
However, the catenary is so ancient that no more than 2 trains can run on this section

For a community centered so much in the US, y'all not talking enough about the fact Miami just opened the first actual BRT system the US and Canada have ever seen.
Off board payment, enter through left doors, signal priority (apparently) and grade crossings on intersections

I swear I'm never using CapCut again, this thing sucks so much

If anyone even cares, I've been sick and stressed, BUT, uploaded lots of videos in my channel, finished some scripts, started working on others and am already producing my next hot-topic urbanism video which will be translated to English.
Also made this site, enjoy

Hello everyone!
I'm here to announce 2 things:
1 - I've posted the first video in my channel about urbanism
2 - I've added subtitles to it in english!

The video was primarily directed to Brazilians and people of my city, but you can still watch it if you want
