Let's talk about cities

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago (2 children)

I've lived in cities with trams for the past 10 years and i think buses are less cool but more practical. Installing the rails is expensive and disruptive, they take a lot of room on the street (with the stop included), and if a tram gets stuck the next one can't go around, it just sits there and waits.

Busses get delayed/stuck way more often

Regular railroads periodically place railroad switches for reversive movement(or how it is translated) so if one train stucks, trains behind it can use "wrong" track. Same in subway. Why don't you complain about subways then?

Oh, so all those times i was stuck inside a tramway were just bad dreams i had.

You're off the rails (intentional). I just said that i have personal experience with tramways as public transit, and i get responded with a dubious generality and a passive-agressive meme from fifteen years ago. And for some reason a whataboutism with subways??

That's not a teleportation device.

You mean a suicide and rebirth device?
