GO train near Oakville was seconds away from ‘worst-case’ derailment, internal Metrolinx report shows
Again, this had to be leaked to the media because there’s no transparency about anything at Metrolinx.

Realized I could take a faster train that leaves 30 mins later and costs $38 instead of $61, and arrives only 20mins later. Changed it at the station at the very last minute; no line, no hassle. I love #trains, can you imagine trying to do that with a plane flight?

Going on a journey on Germany‘s known to be unreliable trains. Everything‘s going great and on time so far!
Teenagers are shouting Six Seven and I just saw a lone construction trailer in the middle of a field with several dozen chickens around it.

RE: #trains

Back in 2018, I took the Maglev between Longyang Road and Pudong Airport. The route was so short that the train was only able to get to it's top speed for something like a minute before it had to start slowing down again. The new Chuo Shinkansen is supposed to go from Tokyo to Osaka and be faster than the Shanghai Maglev. I think that's really cool.

KSR Railway Station, the main train station in #Bengaluru #India as we await the train to #Udupi. 🚉
PS: "Garden City" is Bengaluru's moniker, which is just so not apt anymore. Still a nice city.

This machine is amazing

And this week I heard there is not one single seat available between Copenhagen and Hamburg the weekend *before* Easter. That effectively means no-one from anywhere in Scandinavia can travel to the rest of Europe by train, because there isn't enough capacity in the system 🤬
