The section discussing (inter/intra)agency turf battles reminded me of a recent article discussing how the pandemic has led to some significant reevaluation of what the role and purpose of traditional "commuter rail" is within public transit as a whole (particularly focusing on the MBTA/Boston, contrasting the quote from Frank DePaola):

- Ericson2314 5y agoYes American computer rail service is a complete scourge. It's a regressive sop to white fighters and their posh descendents. It simply begets more car culture, a band-aid that hides scaling limitations where they are most salient. It's a self-defeating honey-pot that soaks up the political will for transit in something that will never get broad traction.

Demonizing an entire ethnic group would not be tolerated if any other group were being attacked. Honestly this is probably just flame bait. Never mind.
