If only the SF Bay Area had the equivalent working! Some day, the
Translink card may work as well, but who knows when that'll be.


Don't knock BART, it must be the fastest underground in the world with
a top speed of 75mph. Which I'm sure it reaches under the bay.

Err, the things that an Oyster Card does have NOTHING to do with the
things BART (and the rest of SF Bay area public transportation) do
OK at and EVERYTHING to do with one of the things that they don't do
well at all.

And I'd trade less top speed for more frequency, even on BART, thank you.
