On this day in 1993, Harre W. Demoro, my Daddums, passed away at the age of 53. I am turning 60 this Fall, & I still miss him being there for me. It has been so weird to outlive my dad. So much left unsaid.

A man stands in front of a Southern Pacific diesel engine, a medium format camera around his neck. The text says IN THE OAKLAND CA TRAIN YARDS. A three picture collage of a man with glasses making goofy faces while holding a small child. The third picture shows him lying in a striped hammock, holding a baby. A man in a suit and tie stands in front of a wall of framed pictures of men. Next to him is a girl with a Dorothy Hamill haircut. He is raising a glass in toast to her, while smiling and looking at her. She smiles, teeth showing g, to the camera.

Clipper cards aren’t going away—you’ll still need them for transfers to other transit, like Muni.

The Bay Area Rapid Transit system hosted its first-ever “BART Prom“ at the Rockridge station to foster community engagement and generate revenue amid a significant budget deficit.

#urbanism #urbanplanning #BART #BARTProm #BayAreaTransit
KQEDNews on Instagram: "The parking lot under the Rockridge BART station was transformed into an 80's themed dance party on Saturday night, as hundreds attended the transit agency's first ever BART prom. Dubbed “Enchantment Under the C Line," the prom drew public transit supporters who donned blue corsages and sea-themed costumes to dance and drink unlimited punch. "The original BART system, the yellow line ended in Concord. And so the Rockridge station is officially part of the C line. C for Concord. So it's kind of an inside joke for BART staff," explained BART's Chief Communications Officer, Alicia Trost. The event was the most recent in a series of IRL events the transit agency is hosting as a way to both bring the Bay Area's public transit community together as well as increase ridership and revenue for the organization, which is facing a steep budget deficit. ✍️🎥🎬 Anna Vignet @avinyay"
