@josephjrose Why are you running this with a 5yo pic of the kindle reading driver? Are you seriously implying that's why drivers got lost?

@josephjrose drivers do NOT get trained on new routes How can #trimet get away with this continuous stream of lies they pump out?
Old (early 80s) transit mall photos: imgur.com/a/TPlpf and imgur.com/XVMQ2T1
@BJDorr So if they stand up at the safety stop & start to gather heavy luggage, they could lose their balance when the train pulls forward
@BJDorr The train makes a safety stop prior to completely stopping at the bumper; people don't expect the train to start moving again

@MateoHunt Yes, so far just being tested on a Type 1 and Type 2. Nothing in service yet.
TriMet just got out-greened by UK which introduced its 1st bus powered by biomethane created via sewage & food waste: wessexwater.co.uk/news/threecol.…
@tedder42 @bojack54 @pdxcommute Car driver confusion w lanes/signs on the mall negatively impact TriMet bus/rail operators (wrong lane, etc)
@tedder42 @bojack54 @pdxcommute Yes, which is why I deliberately said "operated a vehicle", not "drove a car"
The union & trimet riders are expected to make sacrifices. What has Neil sacrificed? Getting only 2.5 months vacation instead of a solid 3?
@rosecitytransit To a point. TriMet chose to pay millions/yr into mgmt retirement trust while union retirement left as "unfunded liability"
"TriMet union benefits are too high"-says the GM making $290k/yr with 11 wks vacation & expected pension of $17k/mo. Who's the REAL problem?

#TriMet GM McFarlane gave himself self-evaluation for 3.4% raise w/ annual compensation now at $290K s.oregonlive.com/WFn2Kxj via @oregonian
@Gates_Jon To give credit where credit's due, that post originally appeared in @PortlandAfoot (cc: @andersem) :)
@MateoHunt Yeah, and now for events the former WB track is used (the northernmost one)
@MateoHunt Paving over where the buses cross the rails
"Bus driver, can you turn the air down?" "No." i.imgur.com/PUCF1Sk.gif
@engineerscotty @Intersection911 Should've done that by design. Trains on the left, buses in center and right lanes.
@Intersection911 Yes, as do the sups who spend time waving hundreds of cars out of the transit lanes & telling them no, you can't turn right
