THANK YOU!!!! (+a brief preview of the next big video)
Added 2025-12-05 17:38:48 +0000 UTCFriends, thank you SO MUCH to everyone who has signed up for Patreon over the past couple days, and indeed to everyone who has been here for longer than that! It's been insane seeing the number of supporters grow, and we're now at over 2,000 patrons! This so far exceeds any expectations I had when I started this, and especially for a channel under 100,000 subscribers, it's just such an overwhelming amount of support...I can't thank you all enough for, to be completely honest, FULLY FUNDING the adventures I'm able to take for the channel!! I really hope that the video output has made you feel like your money has been going to a decent place - I still have a lot of comments on here I need to respond to, but I just had to show my appreciation for everyone first. I'm so glad I don't have to worry about making perfect thumbnails or taking a million sponsors (well, except Manta, but those are just extremely fun to do), and I'm so extremely grateful that my odd, chaotic style of videomaking about extremely niche topics has managed to garner such an amazing, supportive audience.
I have big plans for next year: some huge international trips (including a couple of forays to a new continent for me), the return of a beloved series (or multiple?), and attempting to edit my way through a massive backlog that includes a 24-hour Clipper Card challenge, a trip to Paris, and - possibly what I'm most excited to edit once I'm done with the December suite - the overland journey to a small French collectivity off the coast of Newfoundland that many of the geography foamers in the audience will know the name of! ;) Plus I'll be doing even more fun stuff whose plans I need to lock in with my friends: more least used stations, more trip reports, and some potentially insane challenges...
I realize this feels more like a look-ahead to 2026 when I am still very much working my way through the end of 2025, but please enjoy a sneak preview of what will hopefully be coming out in two weeks' time! This could end up being very different depending on how the rest of the video pans out (my editing process is very vibes-based) and I could end up splitting this one into two parts as well if the pacing makes sense, but the least I can do is give everyone a look at what's coming next! I think it's going to be a good one ;)

Aww, thank you so much!!

2026-01-05 00:28:52 +0000 UTCYes! Clipper Cards 🎉 if you take the Golden Grate Transit don't forget to Tap on and Off. It can be expensive otherwise 😞
Milly Duarte
2026-01-04 19:14:14 +0000 UTCGot this as a gift from my hubs for Christmas - best gift ever! Miles, we love watching your videos (and as Clevelanders we appreciate your dealing with our super weird RTA)!

2026-01-02 02:23:31 +0000 UTCHey it's Kriss just under my legal name ..... I finally made it sorry it's at the lower tier but as my health improves I shall climb the ranks!
Chris Bailey
2025-12-18 01:05:39 +0000 UTCHahaha, that is AMAZING to hear! And I believe Dayton has electrified more of the routes now, so I hope you have better luck than us!

2025-12-18 00:52:56 +0000 UTCI really appreciate the kind words, Will - thanks so much!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-18 00:52:21 +0000 UTCI've had this for a good while! There was just a huge influx with the Mexico to Canada video.
Miles in Transit
2025-12-18 00:51:16 +0000 UTCWhoa, that's very cool to hear. Thanks so much for watching (and reading!!!) for this long!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-18 00:50:50 +0000 UTCOoh, that sounds cool!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-18 00:50:17 +0000 UTCLove the channel! Great! If anyone would love to try a new channel about trains in China, i hugely recommend Out of Bounds. You can find their latest video by searching “Journey to China’s Westernmost Station”
Sean Gibson
2025-12-16 12:41:54 +0000 UTCBeen following you since the early, early days of Miles on the MBTA (I grew up in Cambridge, a few years older than you, and kept hearing from various fellow transit enthusiasts about this funny kid who was reviewing bus stops...). Feel like it's about time I chipped in to support your work!
Ben Cox
2025-12-13 02:25:20 +0000 UTCTbh I'm surprised you didn't have a Patreon already. With your output I thought this was your full time thing already

2025-12-12 20:00:53 +0000 UTCYour honourary Canadian status was strong before but now it’s absolutely unquestionable
Robert Welch
2025-12-12 18:49:22 +0000 UTCMiles, you're an inspiration! I'm grateful to you and other urbanist "usual suspects" (like Ray Delahanty) for opening me up to a life lived in the city, car-free, foaming trains and buses while talking about them nonstop to my friends (and anyone who will listen). Your DIY style, loyal friends/viewers' cameos and cavalcade of in-jokes make transit feel not just accessible, but normal (which isn't easy in a car-centered society like the USA). I hope to complete as many of the trips you have in the future (time and money allowing), that should provide a wealth of adventures to delight in!
Will
2025-12-10 19:46:08 +0000 UTCThanks to your trackless trolley video, my 5 year old and I are exploring my home town via some of the same routes you and Jackson rode this Christmas. (He was also wildly entertained by your pronunciation of Meijer, and very happy to hear about the text at the bottom saying you figured it out)

Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:22:59 +0000 UTCSAME GOES FOR YOU, STORMY!!! We gotta do the other Illinois trains! And I'm sure everyone's wondering what we got up to in Carbondale...
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:22:30 +0000 UTCThank you so much!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:22:15 +0000 UTCWe gotta plan that, Ren! AKA I need to text you and Jay

2025-12-08 21:22:06 +0000 UTCWow, I really appreciate that!! Maybe someday, but I'm so grateful for the little community we've got now!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:21:41 +0000 UTCThank you so much!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:21:08 +0000 UTCI visited Budapest with my family as a teenager and still call it the best transit system I've ever been on. I would LOVE to go back someday!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:20:51 +0000 UTCThank you so much! Shame we missed you as we rode Montreal's underground BRT network!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:20:29 +0000 UTCDuly noted! Definitely got a couple things planned, but alas my backlog is now so large that the limitation is slots rather than needing to pad things out with local stuff...
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:20:03 +0000 UTCDude, that's AMAZING! I'm so glad to have inspired such fantastic-sounding adventures!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:19:15 +0000 UTCAlways!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:18:59 +0000 UTCOh boy, that part was...a pain!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:18:50 +0000 UTCThank you so much for the kind words!!!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:18:42 +0000 UTCThis is possibly what I'm most proud of is being able to change people's vocabulary to conform to mine, heh heh heh >:) (thank you so much!!)
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:18:22 +0000 UTCThanks so much!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:17:55 +0000 UTCWe're filming one in a matter of weeks, don't worry!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:17:32 +0000 UTCThank you!!!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:17:19 +0000 UTCUnfortunately this was filmed on my middle-period camera with really terrible audio, so a directors cut would be a lot more effort to put together...I'm not sure if I'm prepared for that time commitment :(
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:17:11 +0000 UTCA transit service Ontario Traffic Man had never heard of?? Now THAT'S exciting...
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:16:35 +0000 UTCThank you very much!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:16:23 +0000 UTCAlways! I'm so grateful that you feel that way - I love how welcoming this whole community is!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:16:16 +0000 UTCDefinitely got some Europe stuff coming up! Heck, I still have some videos from my Spain trip a few years ago I need to edit, including a high speed journey...
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:15:21 +0000 UTCHey, I really appreciate the support - thanks for lending a bit of your college budget over! The Clipper Card video is going to be VERY fun.
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:14:43 +0000 UTCThanks so much, Matthew! Usually I'd have videos up here a week early, but these big ones are taking a lot more time to put together!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:14:10 +0000 UTCI really appreciate the kind words, thank you!

Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:12:59 +0000 UTCThank you so much, David!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:12:54 +0000 UTCNothing planned right now unfortunately! But I would not have a hard time getting Aleena to go there someday - Vietnam is very much a bucket list country for her!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:12:44 +0000 UTCI gotta do more of them! Thanks so much for subscribing!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:12:16 +0000 UTCThank you so much!!!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:12:03 +0000 UTCWe went to Paris last year, actually - I still need to edit all the videos we filmed! Really sorry we missed you, but you can correct us on all the stuff we got wrong at least!
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:11:53 +0000 UTCI gotta wait for her to get back from Taiwan! She's there for 11 months on a Fulbright right now.
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:11:23 +0000 UTCUgh, so unfortunately, we filmed this video on that kinda middle-period camera I had that has REALLY bad audio, so I don't see myself doing a director's cut for this one because it would require so much subtitling. The nice thing about the West Coast one was that I could just put it together without any effort, but here I'd have to mess with the audio a ton and I don't know if it's worth the time crunch...
Miles in Transit
2025-12-08 21:11:02 +0000 UTCI'm am looking forward to the 12 hour director cut of crossing Canada by bus

2025-12-06 23:26:06 +0000 UTCIf you don’t marry this woman after all the nonsense she deals with, I’m questioning your judgment. Thanks for all the wonderful content you provide. It reminds me, I need to upgrade my Patreonage from Poor Bid level.
Essss
2025-12-06 22:47:34 +0000 UTCJust finished watching the eleven hours of your odyssey from Mexico to Canada, and it was amazing, as always! Quite a strength to spontaneously create a video that long while still being very entertaining all along. Great to see that you're coming to Paris next year. I'm a fellow transit planner at Île de France Mobilités, so let me know if you need help or insights!
Félix
2025-12-06 22:36:41 +0000 UTCI have been a fan for years but only just caved and got the patreon! I have never been more glad to have signed up for one <3
Kelly R
2025-12-06 07:15:28 +0000 UTCJust became a patron after all these years, 100% worth it, your videos are so fun to watch. As a Boston native and a Seattle transplant it's awesome seeing so much love for both on the channel. Hope I can stop by a meetup one of these days :)
Specific Language
2025-12-06 03:13:46 +0000 UTCI wonder if we could get you to come to South East Asia; plenty of interesting transit systems beyond the headliners.
Benjamin Farah
2025-12-06 02:56:10 +0000 UTCI’m not sure there’s anyone out there who cares about the content they make the same way you do. Your enthusiasm has gotten me to care about things I didn’t even think about before watching your channel. Can’t wait for 2026!
David Rosenstein
2025-12-06 02:09:30 +0000 UTCBring back the Great Race series!!!

Patrick Delahanty of FanCons.com
2025-12-06 00:02:30 +0000 UTCI love your videos but once again... mohr vermont content would probably get your channel up to a million subscribers because judging buy the amount of NY/NJ and MA license plates multi millions of people love vermont. So obviously vermont content would make your channel pop soooooo much more!
Ryan 7-7
2025-12-05 22:49:06 +0000 UTCMiles, we're do glad to have you man! Keep up the hard work! 💪🏾 you're doing so well!
Hero-zero
2025-12-05 22:10:02 +0000 UTCFirst, I agree with all the other commentors who enjoy your enthusiasm for transit (and diners), your ability to make even the most mundane places interesting, and all the fun little extras (like songs for bathroom reviews and trip reports). Also, I much appreciate your exhaustive documentation exposing both the good and bad things about the transit you use. Totally worth it to support your channel.

2025-12-05 21:56:57 +0000 UTCI’ve been watching for a few years but finally joined the Patreon and so happy to be here, love following along on social media and having a sense of what videos might be coming soon
Matthew Rosenberg
2025-12-05 21:53:34 +0000 UTCCan’t wait for the 24-Hr Clipper Card challenge as someone whose introduction to transit was in the Bay Area!!! Congrats Miles, and I’m very happy to be here :) (thanks for keeping the patreon affordable, this broke college student is very happy :3)
heyitshaystack
2025-12-05 21:20:46 +0000 UTCYour enthusiasm is infectious… I’ve even got my entire family as fans of yours now. I watched your last video on a high-speed train between France and Germany… And I could only think how much fun you’d have doing some European rail journeys. Maybe taking the EU rail pass on seeing how much you could get out of it in certain amount of days.

2025-12-05 20:44:04 +0000 UTCHey Miles! I’m happy to help out in anyway that I can. Your videos are a lot of fun and extremely informative.
David is Hungry
2025-12-05 20:37:23 +0000 UTCI am so excited for the cross-Canada bus video(s)! I can't wait to hear more about what it's like to ride those intercity services. I had never even heard of DRL before your journey
Ontario Traffic Man
2025-12-05 20:21:29 +0000 UTCThis looks awesome! Have been waiting for this (and your last video) since I was following your posts on Bluesky this summer. Hoping there’s an extended directors cut of this one as well - still only 2.5 hours into the one for your last video!
Tim Hull
2025-12-05 19:37:19 +0000 UTC"Locking in with friends" might be my favorite part of your channel, Miles. I'm sure it takes a lot of logistical planning, as you mention. But it's wonderful to have the local expertise and even better to enjoy the esprit de corps among you and your crew.
Elise Mae
2025-12-05 19:31:26 +0000 UTCLove you and your beautiful chaos, Miles!!

2025-12-05 18:21:03 +0000 UTCso glad i found this channel this year, your videos have gotten me really excited about public transit again! (and also altered my entire apartment’s vocabulary, “foamer” and “diner!” are permanent mainstays now)
jay
2025-12-05 18:20:15 +0000 UTCI saw you and Aleena were interviewed by the CBC about your journey, so I’ve been looking forward to this one.
Bryan Harvey
2025-12-05 18:15:01 +0000 UTCYou have an incredible patron to subscriber ratio because your adventures are so good it makes people want to be part of it, your in jokes help us feel a sense of community, and your humor, style, and special guests make each video endlessly entertaining. Wherever your travels take you, you know we’ll be watching and enjoying!
Jon Ross
2025-12-05 18:14:58 +0000 UTCcan't wait to see the video and finding out how you did the Québec to new Brunswick part ! I was sure that only via rail connect the two provinces by transit!

JeroenL
2025-12-05 18:11:37 +0000 UTCYour channel has inspired me! In the last year, I have visited 6 foreign countries and I made an effort to ride all of the public transit that I could in each one!! It was intimidating at times, especially in places where English (my first language) was nonexistent. But I thought to myself, “Miles and his friends would do it.” Thanks a million! Looking forward to the miles ahead.

2025-12-05 18:08:41 +0000 UTCYes! Aleena is the best!

Rebecca Mundschenk
2025-12-05 18:03:28 +0000 UTCYou’re the goat of transit YouTube man, keep up the good work! Honestly this post has reminded me that since I’ve been watching you for so long (I think 4 years atp), I kinda miss the earlier era of lower budget hyper-local Philly/Boston content. There’s something really interesting about showing the unique parts of a system you’d ride everyday anyway versus one you’d travel across the world to see. I’m not sure if I’m the only one that likes those kinds of videos more (the Boston ferry ones were some great recent examples!) but I definitely hope 2026 will feature those types of vids too in addition to the bigger production ones!
Max
2025-12-05 18:03:19 +0000 UTCBecause I had followed the trip religiously on Twitter, I didn't even realize that you hadn't released the video yet. I can't wait! I'm sad that I wasn't able to say hello as you stopped in Montreal. I was coincidentally coming into Bonaventure Station like 30 minutes after you left, a coin's toss from the Megabus departure area. Keep up the amazing work! I absolutely love your editing style. It's extremely charming and all of the Patreon support is because of how authentic you are on camera.
Chris Leroux
2025-12-05 18:01:07 +0000 UTCI just hope one day I'll see a video from my hometown, Budapest :) Lots of cool tram rides, subways and a funicular.

2025-12-05 17:50:58 +0000 UTCYour love for transit is infectious. You provide so much entertainment and education that’s invaluable to society, chaos and all! I can’t wait to see where you get up to next year (really hope you’re implying visiting places in Asia cause I’d love to see your take) but excited to see you ply through my hometown of Edmonton on your cross Canada bus trek. I lived in Vancouver and now Toronto, and between the three cities, it’s light and day in so many ways. All the best to you and your family (I really need another family trip soon) and Aleena. May 2026 see you cruising higher!
Eric Hanson
2025-12-05 17:48:50 +0000 UTCthank you so much for your incredible work! you deserve all the growth you get and more - i recall coming across your channel with the video where you took a greyhound across the country and thought that you must’ve had at least 500k subscribers at the time, it was very refreshing to get such high quality content from a creator your size ^^
