A big crowd has come to St. Paul Union Depot this morning for the first run of the new #Amtrak #Borealis train between the Twin Cities and Chicago. FRA leader Amit Bose just called it “a win for the Midwest” and “just the beginning.”

We call this the "pupper horn" 🐶 Proof that just because you leave your car at home and take your bike out instead, this DOES NOT mean you have to go without the horn. 🤣 youtube.com/shorts/-telaHu…

Really hope that Tattered Cover Book Store can find a strong, central location on the #16thStreetMall when they emerge from bankruptcy. Local Megabooks like Powell's Books and The Last Bookstore are more than retailers, and make for attractions in themselves. Downtown Denver Partnership should have one too!

ICYMI, Nathaniel Minor uncovered a SCATHING letter from Colorado Regulators (the PUC) to #RTDManagement. The letter rebukes RTD for failing to avoid preventable light rail disruptions and failing to provide sufficient relief services for passengers. greaterdenvertransit.com/wp-content/upl…

Here’s RTD totally failing to answer a simple “yes/no” question by treating us all like idiots that haven’t figured out what rail inspections are. #LightRailCrisis #DoBetter

Hey British Airways, this was one badass paint job. Bring back the #LandorBALivery scheme for at least one of your 777's still flying. Would love to see this visit Denver Int'l Airport!

Love to see Colorado Department of Transportation (CDOT) and Bustang bringing in a fresh bus design with windows completely free of wraps that will provide riders with unencumbered Colorado mountain views! #ThisIsHowWeDoIt

On the 0 right now to an event and it is completely packed. When RTD runs service that works for people’s lives, they use it. #HowIRideTheBus

While awaiting finer-grained Colfax BRT 100% design, a 🧵 of exciting (or benign) changes to E Colfax Avenue in detail, courtesy of 90% design docs. Think sidewalk width, bike improvements, new trees, lights, and parking changes More information here: denvergov.org/Government/Age…

RTD is having severe challenges right now, but there is no world where CUTTING FUNDING for transit is going to help. Vote YES on 7A to #KeepTransitMoving in Denver!

James Flattum (@jamesflattum) 's Twitter Profile Photo

#Transit is a vital public service for Denverites, and now is NOT the time to cut its funding. Change is needed at RTD, but there is no universe where LESS FUNDING will improve the transit experience. #VoteYesOn7A to #KeepTransitMoving without raising taxes over current levels.
