Google's transit overlay on maps is garbage; they leave out lots of transit options for the cities which they DO cover (eg. suburban and intercity transit) and there are tons of cities (eg. Philadelphia) that they don't even cover in the first place
yeah i was gonna whine that london has a large suburban rail network lol
Yeah that doesn't have eg the line I will take to work tomorrow as I've stayed at my parents house. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hinchley_Wood_railway_station …
Line electrified 1916-25, station opened 1930, barely improved since then 
Highkey think that a big obstacle to making improvements in cities like London is that not many people have a very clear idea of what "better" would look like I am even more convinced this is the case in the USA, where they usually don't even think "better" is possible
For me it's densifying suburban areas in order to fund and justify transit improvements. Without moving together likely to be major opposition because of road congestion. School, hospital issues too. But surprise surprise no issues with lawyer, cafe, shop, bar "congestion"
love congested bars, not so big on congested cafes love congestion OF bars AND cafes
I don't. Takes too long to get a drink.
If I want a drink fast, I can just get one from the fridge at home. I go to bars for the PEOPLE
I go to bars for the people I go with. (Or if travelling).
