  3. [on City Weekend] New train tickets to sport QR-like codes instead of "plain-vanilla" barcodes; more forgery-proof. http://is.gd/5fXGW
  4. Whoops. That was actually the Tiantongyuan North terminus on #BeijingSubway Line 5... always home to loads of people...
  5. #BeijingSubway Lishuiqiao station (Lines 5 and 13) hit today by MASSIVE queues and impatient passengers... http://bit.ly/4JSSCh
  6. #BeijingSubway Liushuqiao station (Lines 5 and 13) hit today by MASSIVE queues and impatient passengers... http://bit.ly/4JSSCh
  7. #BeijingSubway Lines 9 and 10 will meet at Liuliqiao station (六里桥站) in an arrangement like that at Huixinxijie Nankou (惠新西街南口).
  8. New Exit E at #BeijingSubway Sihui station (四惠站) reality. It's at the north side, though, so you can't see it from the freeway...
  9. Hint: the Railways Ministry is one the most impossible-to-deal-with government department in China... not looking good...
  10. New Beijing-Shenyang Express Rail to move along National Highway 101. That has not impressed high-rise residents nearby...
  11. #BeijingSubway Lines 4 and 8 will mix and match at the new, huge Xingong station. 8, however, is only "in the plans"... patience... :-)
  12. #BeijingSubway Line 4 (Daxing) works progressing fast; Xingong station (新宫站) to be largest Subway stop so far...
  13. Delays on #BeijingSubway Line 10 according to @cranewang. Wait — we thought Obama was still in Shanghai?
  14. No more freezing aircon in the #BeijingSubway. We say it's time. (It's winter.) Reports tell us those on Line 4 are *especially* vicious...
  15. In terms of the #weather, look for temperatures hovering just below 0°C (32°F) tonight-ish. Bundle up warm!
  16. Quickie here: @Beijingology will only post BIG Beijing Subway-related news. (And other non-Subway tweets.) @MobileMetro will be all-Subway.
  17. #BeijingSubway Line 15 opens Dec 28, 2010 for the section between Wangjing West (望京西, change to Line 13) and Houshayu (后沙峪).
  18. [Subway] Xizhimen: Line 13 folks going back to Line 2 less affected. All passengers advised to follow signs at all times. [End update]
  19. [Subway] Xizhimen: Line 2 passengers all exit using southern side hall and then choose their exit. Major delays thru reroutes expected.
  20. [Subway] Xizhimen: Queues too much?Reroute Line 2 to Yonghegong; 5 to Huixinxijie Nankou; 10 to Zhichunlu; then you're on Line 13! (More...)
