@allaboardohio.org's Beth Russell reminds us all that when advocates, elected officials, and community & business leaders are all on the same page - there isn't much we can't do. Right now, the future of passenger rail in the Buckeye State is looking a little brighter because of it.

The iconic transit systems of the world? Colorful. The vast majority of busses in the U.S.? White, Gray, and Dark Blue. We deep dive into why transit needs color www.allaboardohio.org/posts/how-co...

Advocacy works! (Louder for those in the back) Thanks to the grassroots efforts of our friends at @allaboardohio.org, the state budget will now include funding for the Buckeye State to join MIPRC - a huge win in the efforts to make the "3C+D" plan a reality. www.wkyc.com/article/news...

Light rail in the subway or spa?

Book & Train a hell of a combination.
