Re: Green Line (Central)

That's a big milestone... man, I can't wait to start shooting all of the new angles along this route; I wonder when testing will be underway with enough frequency to go out and get some photos in different spots without having to wait for too long.

Re: Mobile Version?

I don't know that it's worth spending time on, it works okay once you discover that it's there... otherwise [Previous] and [Next] buttons would probably be sufficient.

Re: Northstar

The problem with increasing commuter train frequency is more an issue of BNSF's capacity though, no?

Re: Northstar

Yep, the best way to increase ridership is to reduce service... makes sense to me!

Re: Mobile Version?

Actually... how does pagination work on the mobile version? In other words, how do I see the previous page of a thread?

I browse a few other forums using the Tapatalk App, and it's fantastic. It'd be dandy if support for it was enabled here as well: http://www.tapatalk.com/activate_tapata ... ugin=phpbb
