@FarNWSider773 Thanks, it’s some sort of handwriting font closer to the 1924 IRT map.

@calcagnomaps Nice map, @calcagnomaps Michael. Is a print version for sale?

Chicago, curved.
I reimagined the iconic 1937 “fish-eye” Chicago transit map—using today’s @cta lines, colors, and service.
Vintage design meets modern rail.
Now available as a square print.

Inspired by the 1938 Henry Beck @TfL Central London Underground map and applied design to the full @RideSacRT light rail system. #sacrt #tfl #London #Sacramento #henrybeck

Looking for reviewers & contributors — operators, maintainers, historians, anyone who knows the system inside out.

More than a map — it’s a deep dive into Chicago’s elevated & subway lines: every yard, junction, interlocking, and railfan hotspot. 2/3

I’m excited to announce Tracks of the Chicago L — the first full track-level diagram book of the entire CTA ‘L’. Inspired by Peter Dougherty’s Tracks of the NYC Subway (nyctrackbook.com). 1/3

How this token ended up on the property of a transit-loving map designer and upcoming book author is a mystery.
Ever find something completely random that made you go “What the….”? 3/3

It was crusty and rusted, but the bullseye design was clear - faintly reading “NYC Transit Authority.”
Disclaimer: I own a small collection of NYC tokens, all accounted for and stored safely. This one is not from my collection. 2/3

Mowing my yard, I spotted a rusty piece of metal. I always remove anything that could smash a window… and dug up a NYC Transit Authority “Bullseye” token from 1986 - in California, 3,000 miles from NYC! 1/3
