In 1962, the New York City Transit Authority introduced Etti-Cat to scold and cajole commuters into more courteous behavior. Posters featuring the superbly polite feline’s admonitions were placed in almost 3,000 NYC subway cars.

hey public transit fans and people who travel regularly -
fyi Amtrak has a guest rewards program for taking the train now
Yes it includes you can redeem them for travel, either by themselves or in combination with cash
When did they start? No idea. How does it work? They have a lot of details on their site! I just saw this because they sent me a big flashy email about how to redeem my points (which if they were smart is an email they'd make sure to send Often), so saying "I'm just the messenger" is honestly a big overstatement, more like I am leaving a small stack of fliers about on the counter of a public restroom.
I'll just answer with a link to the home page for their guest rewards program

Please excuse the exhausting definition density of soulless marketing language
But yeah. Turns out, in the United States, Amtrak gives you loyalty points now. And like, an actually, genuinely, extremely reasonable point to money ratio, too, which I wasn't sure was still possible in 2026.
Happy train riding!! ✨🚉🚄🚃🚂🛤️
My mom and I went down to Boston for a night this week, and while we were waiting for the subway at North Station, one of those automated "attention passengers" messages came on. so this generic vaguely-male voice says "Attention Passengers, the" and then just...stops. It wasn't interrupted by another message or anything, and when the voice spoke again (like ten plus seconds later) it was completely unrelated.
I can probably guess what the message was supposed to be (announcing how soon the next train would be), but I have no idea why it stopped.

10pm in the underground
In light of the recent popularity of my 1940 bank subway map, here is another slightly older c1938 bank subway map, this time courtesy of the New York Savings Bank with a lovely illustrated cover. The inside contains some detail about the length and ridership of the three systems and on how to determine the location of an address based on which avenue it is on. Notable is the still under construction Sixth Avenue Line between 59th Street and West 4th Street.
Ad from the Wichita Falls Times: 20 Feb 1927
Cars in cities have been a problem for a century, and we've known the solution to that problem for a century.
