  5. Yeah, you’re looking at it… I ride the light rail to work, which is fun o/ but the subway is a pretty sad attempt.Baltimore’s bus network is incredibly extensive and efficient though.

  7. Groundbreaking is scheduled to happen by the end of this year, first section open by 2013, and the full line (as shown here) open by 2018 or 2019.It’s sad that this plan was basically axed twice by politicians lacking foresight, but there’s nothing that can be done about that.

  10. I just saw this on the 4chan homepage and shat bricks. I use the station at waterloo pretty much every day.

  13. Wow, I just looked at that and I have to agree.Particularly the grey line, northeastern end, 9th station from the right…

  15. It’s actually quite easy to get from A to B in this tiny country. This map makes it look hard, but we’re really not that intelligent by comprehending it.

  16. Yo country so small, it ain’t got nothin’ but frequent commuter rail. Makes me feel depressed.

  17. Hadn’t thought of it that way. Even in Spain we’ve got HSR by now, as well as 12 cities with commuter rail systems. Hahaha tiny country is tiny, but weed is awesome.

  18. the best damn subway in america for niggers(except for for the southside’s Red Line
    )fixed.

  19. Does NL have an equivalent of the All Line Rover, and is it less butthurt priced than GB?

  20. marta is so fucking depressingi dont blame the sprawl counties (cobb, gwinnett, north fulton (which will become milton county eventually, etc) because who really wants to give south atlanta easy access to suburbiabut really, when you are only good for getting to the airport, its time to re-evaluate your system

  21. >The white people shouldn’t want blacks from South Atlanta and Decatur into the suburbs>Let’s put all the good shit in the suburbs>I wonder why nothing worth going to is on MARTA.

  22. LOL radial system is radial. Not really my piece of cake, is Birmingham so downtown-oriented that the system works? I prefer a more north-south/east-west kinda grid, see
    . Don’t you guys wish for a belt line at least?

  23. For reference, that network is regional, not metro. Cross-City (red) is 35 miles end-to-end. Chase line (blue) is 45 miles from Stafford to International. Northampton is 50 miles from New Street. Snow Hill route (green) is 67 miles from Malvern to Stratford.From New Street: Walsall 10mi, Wolverhampton 12mi, Redditch 15mi, Coventry 18mi, Lichfield 20mi, Rugeley 25mi, Leamington 28mi, Rugby 30mi, Northampton 50miFrom Snow Hill: Kidderminster 18mi, Leamington 23mi, Stratford 25mi, Worcester (SH) 33mi, Malvern 42miFor comparison: the epically-long journey on London Underground is the Metropolitan Line Aldgate-Amersham – 28 miles.

  25. What he said… I think.Our rail network is a bit shit really. Other than the main stations (New Street and Moor Street/Snow Hill), there isn’t anything in the city centre, it’s just a suburban network (and a fairly limited one at that).We’ve got a decent bus system though, even if it is quite expensive. Luckily I’ve got a train station at the bottom of my street, so it’s only £1.25 return to Birmingham – on the bus it would be £3.30.

  31. Also, Rio de Janeiro Subway.(Actually only the green and orange lines are in fact subway)

  36. LOLOLOLOLOLyou must have the updated version… i dont remember the light rail system on this before. i heard that they are extending the tram line around sydney’s inner west. i dont understand why, i mean they take all the trams away from the 60s70s and they decide on building another system almost 50 years on?

  44. despite the apparent mess it looks pretty easy to use and well designed, the different lines and branch lines, and the local and express trains. I’ve only been once to new york, didn’t use the subway much. How well does it work out?

  46. From wiki:>>From 1927 to 1957, Rochester had a light rail underground transit system called the Rochester Subway. It was the smallest city in the world to have one. There are proposals to put in a new system, possibly using some of the old tunnels. One includes converting the Broad Street bridge tunnel—the former canal aqueduct—into an underground pedestrian walkway, which would also include a Rochester Transportation Museum, and a tram system.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rochester,_NY#Mass_transit
