Forgot to post the game night lineup this week.
First time playing a well loved copy of Great Western Trail. Then a quick game of Mama Mia!
GWT lived up to the hype. Just on the esge of complexity, and a stlatisfying game loop left me wanting to play again.
olfor = for...i cant type on my phone.
Some more pictures from the ride, taken by a co-worker in our electrical/communications division.
Loved showing how ped delay is better here wmby requiring pushing a button and operating the signal in FREE.
84" vs 128" free vs coordinated
East Washington travel times from Blair to I94.
14:01 in the AM (7:20AM)
15:25 in the PM (4:20PM)
Pictures are to/from the shop, so a bit farther and theough a work zone.
My phone overheated, so no PM peak video.

On ladder trucks:
A Pierce (US) 100’ ladder is ~46’9” in length. A Rosenbauer (EU) 105’ turntable ladder is 33’9”.
-13’ (28%) shorter
-5’ MORE reach
-articulates AROUND obstacles vs straight ladder
-Cheaper
-More nimble
-Faster setup
-Superior extraction for disabled or injured
Why track this?
Because it pisses me off when people hop on reddit or facebook and accuse the city of intentionally stopping drivers and oppressing them. Rather than check their expectations of being able to drive 40+mph and never stop over 7 miles through 20+ signals.
