The Global Highway: Interchange to Everywhere

The Driver's waiting for a fare--notice the "availability" of the cab, by the white lite-lit Medallion on the cab roof!
Is Mass Transit available to you!!!

How many gallons of foreign oil does it take to fill this thing?
Trains can be powered by electricity generated by home-grown coal.

Politicians and their asphalt-lobby friends think "Busways" are the answer!
Not really! Get serious about mass transit.

The Missing Ingredient in Your Partnerships
In Lean Supply Chain Management and in Virtual Supply Chain Management discussions there are many references to “partnering”. Partnership means much more than just: purchasing parts from a supplier; contracting for services from a vendor; or selling products to a customer. In a partnership, both of you are “teaming” to help each other succeed.
It is not usually a formal partnership in the legal sense, but instead is an ad hoc “virtual partnership.” Many times this is referred to as ”collaboration.” It is all about sending new customers or other beneficial resources, like cost savings, to your partner; and receiving benefits in return.

Frank's Photography:

Some of these sites are well-known and have been sites Frank has frequented for years, while others are some of the "smaller guys" which he learned about on various mailing lists and message boards. This is not meant to be a lengthy list, but includes quite a few sites worthy of note... Many sites will have their own link collection, so you can take it from there and keep finding new places to visit. There is no "ranking order" here, Frank has just posted them in the order he found them in his bookmarks.
A couple of the coolest links I found on his site are DL&W Stations

On May 11, 2007, a new tram is on the way to Nice.
It was parked near the airport waiting for lighter traffic to travel into the city.
Rear end of car Click here to see more of these trams and read about the new Tramway in Nice, France

FRANCE: NICE WILL OPEN TRAMWAY LINE 2 in YEAR 2016!
In a surprise move, Nice Mayor Christian Estrosi changed his mind about running Line 2 up the Promenade des Anglais and instead went with a plan that provides an 8.6 kilometer "tram/metro" with 3.6 kilometers below ground. It will cost €'450,000,000 and carry 110,000 - 140,000 daily passengers. It will run between Gare de Riquier and new? Gare Multimodal Saint-Augustin.
Boulevard Rene Cassin / Avenue Californie at the Champion/Carrefour food market has a tramway in its future.
Fifty-three years after the closure of the Tramway de Nice et du Littoral, the Tramway de Nice began to serve its Northern and Eastern sections. 2007 saw the completion of Line 1 serving the North-South needs of the city. Line 2 now addresses the East-West needs. This WebSite will be updated continuously until completion of Line 2 in Year 2016.

Harvard Professor John R. Stilgoe states that: ‘Train travel will supplant highway and air travel in the next few decades. Furthermore, electric railroads will increasingly be used to distribute freight items as well as mail and express packages.’
According to Stilgoe the three prime factors driving railroad development are population growth, rising gas prices, and advanced technology.
“In the 1930s it was possible to order a fridge in the morning and have it delivered by train later the same day,” says Stilgoe. “Americans forgot about this, but we’re starting to put it back together.”
Stilgoe slso wrote an excellent yet overlooked book on railroads and the built environment shaped by them called Metropolitan Corridor:Railroads and the American Scene that I highly recommend.
Whats most interesting is that the book is 6 months old and already much has changed in that brief time to further move us toward a new era of the train and seemingly away from our old era of the highway and sprawl, particularly with respect to the financial crisis, foreclosure mess, high gas prices, politics of "change" and global warming awareness.
