Charlotte Light Rail LYNX

[DunedinP]

Its a shame some cities build only one Light Rail Line, and then it takes years before another Line is built.

The mayor of Charlotte almost lot his job for proposing this, then people finally got their sense.

actually a pretty cool sounding horn.

[lordtomasCZ]

Awesome! Tramway with a steamboat horn :-)

Accidentally bought a one way ticket? What are ya, retarded? It isn't that complicated.

[clarkloveselevators]

@adronhall It is if your rushing!

[adronhall]

@clarkloveselevators Obviously you have some lifestyle problems if you're always caught rushing. You probably need to sit down and rethink your life.

[clarkloveselevators]

@adronhall True.

[imanastronaught]

so this isnt free to ride?

[dumbass1984]

of course!

the service on this thing sucks, i accidentally buy a 1 way ticket and get a 50$ fine while other customers are running to the back to get off at the next stop so they wont get a citations

[Jaanfo]

It's called the Honor system and is used widely by most transit systems... The Transit Enforcement only does a spot check and if YOU don't have the right ticket it's YOUR responsibility.

[nigga62089]

awesome, the city of Charlotte is going to have to continue to give out as many citations as possible due to the horrific lack of profits LYNX is creating.

@nigga62089 Apparently does not know the horrific cost of road maintenance .and productivity lost through traffic plus all the hundred million dollar hwy they have to build to keep up with population growth.

[adronhall]

@nigga62089 I guess they should start giving out tickets for people driving on the non-profitable road system. That's ALL roads. Even the Interstate (which sucks up most of the gas taxes) doesn't cover its cost. That comes out of general budget - i.e. Corporate and Personal Income Taxes.

are the horns from the train or are they built into the crossing gate?

[THEFINALHAZARD]

The horn's are on the train.
