Posted by Jackson Park B Train on Thu Aug 25 17:24:33 2016, in response to Re: November 6, 2016 B Division Pick N short-turns to 96th, W part of N, posted by Michael549 on Thu Aug 25 11:46:36 2016. my pleasure. Transit jargon is like any other speecial use of ordinary words. Most of us understand Mean Distance Between Failures; one bus agency where I live says Mean Time Between Road Calls. I prefer MDBF mostly because I think it is more commonly used. Sort of like the "military alphabet" discussed in another recent thread. It has majorly changed since I first learned it as a teen. And your example of the AirTrain is precisely why I believe in FOIA. When wearing my transit advocate hat, the more real data I have, the better chance of persuading the agency in question to improve. I describe my role as jousting against stainless steel windmills armed with a balsawood lance. But, as I am transit dependent, what choices do I have?I am dismayed that Muni no longer posts the data. |
