Wow! This is awesome! I just discovered this blog at The Transport Connection. I grew up in Charlotte but now live in Washington, D.C. However, over the years I have closely followed the development of Charlotte’s transit system. I even went down to Charlotte so I could be there the day Lynx opened.
So to have a blog that keeps me filled in not only about transit in Charlotte but from across my entire home state is great. I’m glad I found this. Keep up the good work.
