Why bother with people talking transit, when you can watch the movement of subway lines and buses throughout New York City and over 100 other cities?

Remarkable stuff! I see how they manage now to maintain a semblance of a schedule with all those timers and GO's. According to the map, the trains honk right through every station without stopping! Without that pesky dwell time, they can almost keep a schedule. :)

If you're bored with Subchat, you're bored with life . . . is there not in Subchat all that life can afford?

Did a train count down here in WMATA land at 0815:

Red36
Blue11
Orange21
Green18
Yellow18
Silver23
Total127

Train count is less then what is really on the railroad as trains disappear when relaying at terminals.

I've seen this before, and there's a lot to be said for it. However, as a professional cartographer, I must take issue with the practice of drawing straight lines between stations instead of following the actual routes. The other thing I've noticed is that for the bus lines, the symbols do not expand sufficiently to display more than 3 characters (e.g. M104).

Down here in WMATA land the alinements are close with a some sections that are off by from a few feet to several hundred feet.

If they used this map to define the alinements it would be accurate to within less the 10 feet.

Is it possible to start the visualization at a specific time? (eg. I want to see overnight service now -- is there a way other than fast-forwarding?)
