San Francisco's T line at the 20th Street station. The “Raygun Gothic” aesthetic is used at several of the stations along 3rd street and south of Market, but IMHO is strongest here, the 23rd Street station, and the UCSF station.

When the Giants are playing well, this train is packed with happy post-game fans. When the Giants are getting their heads kicked in, the fans leave early and this train is empty.

@timrichards @andyjennings @feather1952 when I worked in welfare services in the 1990s, we handed out paper Canberra bus tickets to people we’d just given paper food vouchers to, so they could get to the charity providing the food without a car.

In the 2010s when I worked at a women’s service, we handed out Canberra bus day passes and supermarket gift cards.

This is why the Canberra transport ticketing system today still has a way for people to buy a prepaid card at newsagents or vending machines. It doesn’t have to be linked to a phone if you don’t have one or it’s being surveilled, and support services can still buy them to hand out to clients.

The finnish rail manufacturer Škoda Transtech has been awarded to deliver 20 (+18 optional) trams for the brand new tramway in Uppsala, Sweden!
They're very likely to be similar to what Škoda has delivered to Tampere.
