one of my favorite miles in transit videos yet
America's steepest light rail line is usually out of service, but you have one last month to go ride it while it's (temporarily) back in regular service... youtu.be/LhtKeE20Qxs
Pittsburgh's Insane Out-Of-Service Light Rail Line is (Temporarily) Running Again
It's worth a visit to Pittsburgh all on its own...and Pittsburgh is already WELL worth a visit all on its own!

Excited to share with you all a project i’ve been working on for the better part of the last 2.5 years! You’ll find these new art posters at bus stop shelters across the city!
Huge thank you to local artist Jared Grillo, who turned my awful sketches into works of art to beautify bus stops!
