We’ve gotten so many messages about the Green line here that I had about given up hope. Metro GM Randy Clarke with some hopeful words:
“Team thinks we have a fix to this long standing 🟢🚇 issue in this area. Long story but it’s an electrical anomaly connected to track in that area. During the extended maintenance single tracking later this month team is hoping to resolve part of issue. Thx for patience.” (more…)

“Dear PoPville,
I realize this is a long shot but I’m so sad and desperate for any help. I was out at Red Derby Friday night and Saturday morning realized I didn’t have my ring with me. It’s a gold ring with garnets on it. It belonged to my grandma who passed away in September and I am heartbroken about losing it. I walked from Red Derby to Otis Place via Spring Road.”
If by miracle someone found it please email me at [email protected] and I’ll put you in touch with OP!
