This map has actually been out for a while, but today – celebrating the full opening of the Central Subway – seemed like the appropriate day to post about it. Design-wise, this is very much an evolution of previous efforts (see my review of the post-COVID resumption of service map here) and thus shares many of the same features and faults. I still don🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页t agree with the decision to have station labels set in the […]

A very handsome map of transportation services in the greater Kansas City area from 1941. A nicely subdued olive street grid is overlaid by the route lines – colour-coded by mode (black for streetcars, blue and red for bus lines, and a lovely aqua for trolleybuses). Areas of interest are called out in bright yellow, so this looks like a six-col🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划print job – quite a luxury in 1941! There🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s also a great downtown inset, […]

Submitted by Noah, who says: Here🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s my map of the streetcar services operated by the Kingston, Portsmouth & Cataraqui Electric Railway in 1910. I was inspired to do this after seeing several maps of historic tram networks including the ones on this website [See my 🔸澳州10开奖记录s of Portland, Spokane and Yakima – Cam]. The system opened on Princess St in 1893. By around 1898 it had reached its largest extent as shown in this […]

Submitted by Griffin, who says: Attached is a diagram/sort-of 🔸澳洲幸运10在线人工计划网 I recently made showing all the various rail services and connections in San Francisco. I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页ve never been a fan of how Muni shows service connections on their 168澳洲十开奖网 – BART is typically included, though never Caltrain, nor BART🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页s connection to the airport, which I think is a fairly important to have. I also decided to include the F Market & Wharves street car […]

A charming map of streetcar services – and a few of those newfangled gas buses! – in central Baltimore from 1929. Points of interest are clearly illustrated, and the map is surrounded by vignettes of life and architecture in this “historic, pleasant, thriving city”. A prominent cartouche proclaims that “STREET CARS and BUSES in Baltimore go wherever there is anything to see…” and little streetcars have been drawn running along major thoroughfares. As a side […]

The third in my series of maps depicting electric streetcar networks of the Pacific Northwest, one that both builds on my previous maps of Spokane and Portland and adds something new to the mix: geography. The full project description follows, but you can view the map below or click here to view it in a full-screen window. At 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划sight, the Yakima streetcar and interurban network may not look quite as impressive as the other […]

Old streetcar maps often do a very poor job of actually showing how the routes ran – often just drawing an otherwise unmarked red line down the middle of roads on a standard cartographic map without any explanation of stops, loops or route names (see left for an example). Finding accurate information about the actual routing of individual lines can be a long and thankless process, so 🔸澳洲开奖 long-time 澳洲10开官网开奖 correspondent Karl Otterstrom tweeted […]

Submitted by Travis, who says: I made an animated visualization of the light rail infrastructure of San Francisco from 1850–to–nowish. I was wondering if you would be interested in posting! 澳洲10开官网开奖 says: I sure would be, Travis! This is a great 15-minute video that succinctly outlines the rise and fall of rail-based street transit in San Francisco, Oakland and even Marin County. The sheer number of competing companies in the early years is quite […]
