  1. A photo taken at #Brussels 🇧🇪 Schuman in the early 2000s: an #SNCB #NMBS Class 25 electric enters the station with an afternoon peak time “P” train for western Belgium. The cars are of the comfortable #I10 type, built in the 1980s primarily for international daytime services.

  3. ‘Go faster. The political heat is on.’ Inside the race to fix the 10 Freeway in L.A.

    The fire, which started early Saturday at a property leased from Caltrans where wood pallets were being stored under the 10, caused less structural damage than anticipated, Caltrans said in a news release Friday.

    The mile-long section of the freeway between Alameda Street and the East Los Angeles interchange is now shored up with wooden posts and steel beams, which officials said will allow the overpass to open to traffic while crews work to repair damaged concrete columns and the upper deck.

    With a surge of holiday traffic expected through a freeway corridor that averages about 300,000 commuters a day, the message was clear from the beginning, said the Caltrans engineer who was not authorized to speak publicly and requested anonymity:

  4. @marcprecipice I hadn't thought about it, but rebuilding a train bridge, even with 4 sets of tracks, would be cheaper and faster than a section of the #I10 !

  5. Updates on the #I10 #LosAngeles freeway closure.

    From CalTrans: Fix the 10

    Expect closure to last 3-5 weeks into December.

  6. So a bit more on the #i10 in #LosAngeles, just to give you an idea. That “catastrophe” prevented 300 000 cars to pass through the highway daily.

    With 1.5min intervals (normal in other cities), heavy rail can take that many passengers in less than THREE HOURS.

  7. State of emergency declared in Los Angeles after fire engulfs interstate #I10

    Residents advised to use public transit as hazardous materials crews cleared burned matter and engineers examined damages

    Los Angeles motorists should expect traffic snarls indefinitely as crews assess how much damage was caused by a raging fire that closed a major elevated interstate near downtown, officials said Sunday.
    Gavin Newsom, the state governor, declared a state of emergency Saturday afternoon and directed the state department of transportation to request assistance from the federal government.

    Hazardous materials teams were clearing burned matter from underneath Interstate 10 to make way for engineers to make sure the columns and deck of the highway can support the 300,000 vehicles that typically travel that route daily, Newsom said at a news conference.

    Commuters were urged to work from home or take public transportation into downtown Los Angeles.

    The I-10 closure between Alameda Street and Santa Fe Avenue will have ripple effects on surface streets and other key freeways including State Route 60 and Interstate 5, the California highway patrol said

  8. I sense people foolishly following Google Maps or another navigation aid trying to beat the I-10 flooding closure to get to #PalmSprings... by taking a narrow, windy alternate which undoubtedly is a lot worse. 🙄 #Hilary #I10 #traffic

  9. #PalmSprings at Bob Hope Drive - KTLA video. It's a mess out there... you do not want to be driving out to Phoenix on the I-10 today! #flooding #I10 #hilary youtube.com/watch?v=dmDajbavfe
