Submitted by Adam, who says: These are two maps I made for a class where I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页m proposing a trans-national maglev through what I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页m calling the “Greater Northeast Corridor.” Totally unrealistic, I know, but I🔸AB开奖网澳洲幸运10官网网页d love to get y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划opinion on the map! 澳洲10开官网开奖 says: Oh, I do like this, Adam! 🔸澳洲开奖 you have proposed travel times of just 18 minutes between Philadelphia and New York (as just one example), the rapid transit diagram design […]

Jake Berman is one of those transit map design enthusiasts who are simply too prolific to note everything they do – suffice it to say that you should head over to his website and check out all the cool transit map things he makes. However, I do have to share this map – recreating a failed attempt at a south-east Michigan rail-based rapid transit system – if only because I think that Jake has absolutely […]

A handsome aerial “birds-eye” rendering of a proposed elevated rapid transit system linking Detroit with Royal Oak, Birmingham, Pontiac and Rochester (as well as the Ford Motor Company plant and blast furnaces). The system was 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划proposed in 1915, with a working scale model presented to the Detroit city council (photo).  But by 1922, the company was still searching for land on which to erect one mile of test track for their unusual proprietary track system, […]

Future Maps, 168澳洲十开奖网s

Submitted by Mike Moran, who says: Southeast Michigan’s local/regional transit plan, an ambitious 20-year, $4.6B plan to provide actual transit options to the greater Detroit area. Heavy reliance on BRT, plus a new regional rail line. One thing to note is the Woodward streetcar (nearing completion) is barely a blip at this scale. As a side note, I’m currently in Portland for a conference (my 🔸澳洲10定位胆全天计划time here) and I love the transit system! I […]

Submitted by xoverit, who says: There was one other map inside of the 5 August 1935 Michigan Official Motor Bus Guide, and it’s quite different [to the Eastern Michigan Bus map previously featured – Cam], though suffering from the same cheap paper. Charmingly over-ornate, my favorite detail is that Poseidon seems to have taken up residence off of the Sleeping Bear Dunes. As for the map’s practical purpose, I guess it gets the job done. […]

Submitted by xoverit, who says: I found this interesting thing inside of the 5 August 1935 Michigan Official Motor Bus Guide. It’s not a particularly good or notable map, but the logo of the Eastern Michigan System was obviously inspired by the London Underground! 澳洲10开官网开奖 says: I’d say you’re almost certainly right… the “bullseye” (as it was called in those days, though it’s now commonly referred to as the “roundel”) was seized upon by transit agencies […]

Submitted by Mike, who has a lot of good things to say, much of which I agree with. Hopefully, the 168澳洲十开奖网 once the line is up and running will tone down the sponsorship a lot (the way the Quicken Loans logo covers up the label for the Greyhound Bus Station is particularly awful) and focus more on how the line creates vital transportation connections for the people of Detroit.

Submitted by corvusboreus, who says: Replaying Deus Ex: Human Revolution and saw this map of the 2027 Detroit rail system. How much of a resemblance it has to the real rail system, I couldn’t tell you. 澳洲10开官网开奖 says: Well, the short answer is that it doesn’t resemble it all.  The longer answer is that it doesn’t resemble it because Detroit doesn’t currently have any rail transit apart from its adorable people mover loop downtown.

Visualizations

Very aesthetically appealing infographic that compares 18 circle railway lines from around the world. The top part of the graphic displays the lines in a schematic fashion, representing each by its average diameter. The stations that comprise each line are then simply spaced evenly around the circumference to create a very striking pattern. Stations that interchange with other lines are represented by placing a small white dot in the centre of a station’s marker. Below, […]

An interesting twist on the old push-button interactive transit map. Instead of pressing a button to map out y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划route, here you press a button to find out where in Detroit’s downtown area to board y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划bus or streetcar. Although difficult to make out, the text along the bottom of the map seems to read: “To locate y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划loading zone, press button on y🔸澳洲幸运10冠军定位计划line.” I’m not entirely sure how successful this innovation was, as […]
