Wide-angle symmetrical shot of a metro platform with white, blue and red stripes at the Ladvi metro station in Prague. Those stripes are reflected in a big round metal pillar with a mirror effect in the foreground of the image creating two sorts of googly eyes.

So, we spent a few days messing around in Lyon. I’ve been once before, il y a une trentaine des années, I realise. This time there wasn’t a fight in my youth hostel dorm in the middle of the night. So, today, I wave the family off on the Lyon #metro 3/n

We’re underground. There’s a train. At a platform. It has white sides, grey doors and a red stripe along the top of the side. It appears to be full of people. A lady with yellow hair looks toward the camera. She’s waiting to board
It’s the same photo. I can’t work out how to delete it. Enjoy.

The £3.4m Prudhoe Street #Metro junction replacement project in #Newcastle has won the Outstanding Project of the Year (under £20m) at the Spotlight Rail Awards, marking its second award. The project, completed in just two weekends, was carried out by #Nexus and delivery partner Smarttrax Rail. The works replaced Metro's busiest junction, ensuring minimal disruption with two weekend closures. The complex project involved pumping wet concrete down to the tunnel floor, future-proofing Metro infrastructure for years. The project previously won Project of the Year at the Global Light Rail Awards. The renewal completes the track replacement from #Jesmond to #Gateshead.

@slothrop Having been to Vienna, I strongly second this.

The metro trains run every 5 minutes or better, and likewise trams. They're incredibly punctual.

And no, Americans reading this, that's not a typo.

Almost every destination you'll want to see is either near a metro station or a tram stop.

Belvedere palace? Tram stop. Schonbrunn palace? Metro. St Stephen's Cathedral/Stephensplatz? Metro. Museum district? Metro.

Many parts of the city centre have been pedestrianised.

But aside from all that, especially if you're from the US, Venna almost certainly has better public transport than your hometown.

And I think part of the Vienna experience is being in a city with world-class public transport.
