MAX REDLINE always a good read

You don't have to always agree with "max" either to enjoy that blog. I just love the way the information is presented. All kinds of interesting tid bits get put up over there too!

It looks as though folks in Dallas are Dart+train+ice beginning to discover what Portlanders could have told them long ago. But the observation about the obsession with building more rail, while accurate, is only the tip of the proverbial iceberg; editors at the Dallas Morning News are appalled - appalled, I say - that their multibillion-dollar "system" ground to a halt during their recent spate of inclement weather (known as man-made global warming, according to some respondents). The train in the photo here is stopped dead on the tracks; its readerboard says "not in service" (click to enlarge).

Hey, thanks for the link. I just try to stay with the things that interest me; so much the better if others find the stuff interesting as well. Thing is, I've got a fairly good memory still....
