I took the longest trip you can make on a Peter Pan bus! Will it be a better experience than Greyhound?!? (I mean...yeah, but that doesn't mean it was perfect) youtu.be/8-SIw4jXLzQ

(My phone died at a certain point in the day so I was ENTIRELY dependent on station signage! In theory a good wayfinding system would still have enough maps and signage to be able to guide someone through without a phone, but there’s no doubt that I was in hard mode when my phone was dead!)

But people wax poetic about how amazing MTR is in every way, so I’m definitely intrigued for whenever I get around to editing that video to see if maybe I was just missing obvious things in the moment.

Miles in Transit @milesintransit.com · 11/08/2026
I found that it could be decent within stations but if you got stuck in one of those malls it SUCKED. Also wayfinding between modes was legendarily bad - the buses are run by different companies so everyone only cares about themselves.

Another one that may have more answers besides what I’m thinking: what is the only T bus route whose OUTBOUND terminus is CLOSER to Boston city limits than its INBOUND terminus? (In terms of driving directions, so that excludes peninsulas like with the 714)

Miles in Transit @milesintransit.com · 10/08/2026
Extremely nerdy MBTA trivia question: what is the only T bus route with an OUTBOUND terminus in Boston and an INBOUND terminus NOT in Boston? (and if you can think of one other than the one I’m thinking of, that’s even better!)

Do you live in Montreal and want to join @milesintransit.com testing accessibility of the Montreal Metro on Saturday, August 15th? Canadian Civil Alive is now open to everyone for free (membership needed only for the end of day BBQ). Stay tuned for more YouTubers running events that day.
site.canadiancivil.com
How Many Of Montreal's Accessible Metro Stations Actually Work?
Only a handful of stations on the Montreal Metro are step-free at all. Miles is spending the day finding out how well those ones hold up when something genuinely needs them.

Miami Beach decided that its local bus network should consist of horrible, loud, often high-floor "trolleys" running around in loops with no schedule. We rode the whole thing for some reason. youtu.be/mk94n8LclEQ

The money goes towards funding this and future Canadian Civil events, as well as Paige Saunders’s excellent work! I’m sorry for the short notice - I’ve had a lot of life stuff going on - but I do hope to see some folks there! It’s gonna be a blast.

The number of A380s in Dubai has no correlation with the fact that Lufthansa regularly flies the 747-8 to Boston and has no current plans to retire the aircraft.

It made so much sense for the era it was designed in and then ETOPS changed things so quickly. Its story is so fascinating, and I love that there are still some that are alive and kicking! (Lufthansa is keeping the A340-300s for another two years I think.)
