[Themaintainers] A tale of two metros: how the London tube beat the New York subway

[lee vinsel]

Hi, everyone.

Many of you may have seen this interesting piece published in the Guardian
today.

"The story of how the two most important metros in the western world,
serving cities with such similar pressures of population (between 8 and 9
million, and growing) and hyper-development, diverged so drastically is a
story of many things – but chiefly, says Nicole Badstuber, an expert who
studies transport governance at University College London and once worked
for Transport <https://www.theguardian.com/uk/transport> for London (TfL),
it is 'a story of maintenance'."

As an added bonus, here's a nice little piece on why "It’s a Disservice to
Urge Young People To Become Entrepreneurs."
