[EARLY VIDEO] Albion - Least Used Amtrak Station in Michigan

I really enjoyed editing this one - it's one of the more scattered and oddly paced videos I've done, but I think that gives it a lot of charm? Hopefully you agree! The least used station videos are always fun opportunities to do a greater focus on random minutiae.

[EARLY VIDEO] What's It Like to Ride Greyhound OVERNIGHT From Montreal to Boston?

Sorry I'm...[checks watch]...25 minutes late on this one! Enjoy this little Greyhound adventure!

[BONUS VIDEO] The Trip BACK From Calais, ME

In case you were wondering what the trip back was like! It didn't make the cut in the main video.

[EARLY VIDEO] The Tigre Delta Ferries: An Essential Lifeline That Makes No Sense

Possibly the most obscure transit system I've ever covered...but this system of wooden boats in the exurbs of Buenos Aires was absolutely mind-blowing!

[EARLY VIDEO] DC is Getting Rid of Its Bus System, So We Rode the Whole Thing

Jordan asked me to release this video today (his birthday) and I said no, but actually it's now a surprise! I'm putting it out to you all as early as possible while still being on his birthday!

[EARLY VIDEO] Montreal Built Canada's Worst Commuter Rail Line...in 2014

This ridiculous line has been in the news recently, so that made it the perfect time to put out a video about it!

A multimodal, international extravaganza!

I'm sure many of you were wondering what we did for the NJT fare holiday...

[EARLY VIDEO] We Rode the Easternmost Bus Route in the US (to a tiny Canadian border town)

A really cool trip here, so much so that it ends up being half bus review, half travel vlog!

Upcoming Bonus Livestreams! (take two w/ updated poll)

This month, in lieu of a bonus video, I've got TWO livestreams planned!

First, this Friday (August 23rd), Jeremy and I are FINALLY doing the 100 patron livestream we promised AGES ago - a multimodal trip in Manhattan, Staten Island, and New Jersey, involving two ferries, a railroad, a light rail train, and at least one bus, by my count.

Second, on Sunday, September 1st...

[EARLY VIDEO] Amtrak Night Owl from Boston to DC - Apparently a Trip Report

Been a couple months since we've had one of these!

[EARLY VIDEO] Buenos Aires's Subway System is INSANE!

Moving onto the next international trip in the backlog! There's some WILD stuff in here that I think makes it well worth a watch. Also, what do we think about the thumbnail that emphasizes the rolling stock? To me that's the most interesting aspect of the system, but I could also go for a more generic "Miles in front of the map" one - maybe for the public release I'll try an A/B test.

[EARLY VIDEO] My Ride on South Florida's Tri-Rail Was...Interesting

I'm pretty sure someone requested I put this out, so this one's for that person!

1,000 Patrons!!!

Hey everyone! Between prepping for the Saturday concert, editing videos, and just trying to comprehend what the achievement is here, I've yet to actually write this post!

1,000 patrons is just really hard to fathom - I feel like I don't do a ton of in-your-face advertising for this Patreon besides the credits roll, which I just consider to be really important for giving you all the credit...

[EARLY VIDEO] We Used 10 Buses and a Ferry to Circumnavigate Delaware Bay

[EARLY VIDEO] Montreal's Bus Rapid Transit Line is Decent, but Needs Work

Unearthing one from the archives this week! Out of curiosity, how do you all view the sentiment of the video? At the time I felt pretty negative about the service (mostly due to its complexity with the multiple variants), but the video actually (to me at least) makes it seem pretty positive, so I went with a "mixed bag" approach in the title!

Also, I blinked and suddenly there are 1,000 p...

Come see me and a bunch of other YouTubers in Montreal!

So in a crazy twist of fate, I've been invited to "perform" at this event called Canadian Civil Alive in Montreal on Saturday, August 17, from 6 to 10 PM! To my understanding, it's basically gonna be a casual meetup with a bunch of transit/urbanism YouTubers (Canadian favorites like RMTransit, OhTheUrbanity, and Paige Saunders are confirmed, and I've heard rumblings that folks like Alan Fisher ...

A much more lowkey video this week compared to last! Just a cute little train that I absolutely loved.

There's nothing like a long, slow ferry to make jet lag kick into overdrive!

Patreon Gets the Power

Okay, so prior to filming the Denmark Light Rail video, I filmed the trip on intercity rail from Copenhagen to Odense. I don't want it to go to waste, but I also don't think it justifies its own video, so should I:

You gotta admit, it made for such a good clickbait opportunity!

[EARLY VIDEO] Old Orchard Beach - Least Used Amtrak Station in Maine

A very different vibe in this one compared to, well, every other least used station! (also because I know people are going to ask: West Virginia is coming, it'll be out before the end of the summer)

Also I just spent your money in an irresponsible way for an incredibly grueling and stupid trip to be conducted this weekend, so...thank you so much! I think it'll make for a good video!

Honestly one of my favorites in awhile - I could watch the freakshow bus foaming scene all day!

[EARLY VIDEO] A Very Rainy Trip on the Bridgeport-Port Jefferson Ferry

Ferry video! Also, if you have any ideas for the thumbnail, let me know - I like the simplicity of the boat but I can also see how that might be a bit too minimalist.
