Did this feature die? A search for "muni" doesn't seem to return "San Francisco Municipal Railway" @ http://getsatisfaction.com/muni ...?

Check out this story from today's headlines: "Dump TransLink firm, BART official urges" [http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article...]

To some extent, the overhead electric cables in San Francisco already do this if you know to look!

(Incidentally, I got a ride in a car the other day from somebody who relied on following a specific overhead line to find their way).

It certainly works in all BART stations. I think they are calling it a Pilot Program because it'll be replaced by the TransLink [http://www.translink.org/] fare system eventually. At that time, the EZRider FAQ [https://ezrider.bart.gov/ezrider/faq.jsp] indicates that you'll be able to switch to TransLink.

If you ride BART often, check out their "EZRider" program [see https://ezrider.bart.gov/ezrider/]. It allows you to pay for your BART rides using some sort of RFID/wireless system with the nice benefit that the card can't be demagnetized.

Plus the EZRider card gets linked to your credit card to automatically refill its value when needed.

Company name search could be improved by searching URL shortname

When searching for a company like 'BART' nothing is found, however 'Bay Area Rapid Transit' already exists in the system.

It'd be nice if the search found this, perhaps by matching up the BART search string with the URL http://getsatisfaction.com/bart/ ?

Bradley Froehle started following the question "Why are the trains not color coded to match the maps?" in Bay Area Rapid Transit.

Bradley Froehle asked a question in Bay Area Rapid Transit on February 25, 2008 03:09:

Is the station Berkeley or Downtown Berkeley?

Why does the BART map list the station as Downtown Berkeley, but the signs in the station label it as Berkeley? This is confusing, especially with a North Berkeley station as well.
