The Heartland Flyer is vital for Ardmore and connects our community to OKC and Fort Worth without relying on cars. It’s a lifeline for seniors and boosts our local economy. Please keep it running and consider expanding it northward! 🚂
Larry supported: Safeguard Amtrak's Heartland Flyer for a Greener FutureWhat does Google lose by including this information on Maps? I just don't get that. I use it more than I realized until it was gone. I may never click on a trail or lift, but just by scanning the map, I can tell things like which direction I'm facing from the top of a trail, what landmarks to look for, where to find a restaurant or lodging near the slopes, etc. It is very valuable.
Martin supported: Urge Google to Bring Back Ski Lifts and Cable Cars on Google Maps!I used this a lot when choosing where to stay at the big resorts and often used it to guage where i currently am as a landmark when i get lost on the provided trail map that doesn't have gps. Not everyone skis at vail with their own gps app based trail maps. I even went to 2 smaller resorts that i never would have known existed because i saw the lift lines on the map near my route. Please bring it back. Surveying at only the large resorts is not at all an accurate sample of who uses this and is unfair to the smaller resorts.
Jason supported: Urge Google to Bring Back Ski Lifts and Cable Cars on Google Maps!This issue is important because it voices concerns about regulations and safety issues about public transportation and how we need to fix it.
Maisha supported: Make Changes to the Public transportation systemLived in the Vancouver/Portland metro area almost my entire life and have great memories of this train and route.
The long train ride used to be an attraction in itself and was a huge draw to Washington Park and the Zoo. The amount of tourist attraction it could bring if brought back to life would certainly help to bring in revenue and help keep our park/zoo beautiful and invested in.
Kelly supported: Save the Washington Park and Zoo Railway.After moving here nearly 9 years ago, the train tracks caught my eye and I was instantly curious. I heard rumors of a passenger train through the park and was super excited to ride it, only to discover it was closed two years earlier. It's been a decade and we have yet to see progress on the reopening. It is time!! Let's get a move on so folks can enjoy this unique transport option and we can use the shuttles and cars less for long days exploring the park's favorite attractions!
Amanda supported: Save the Washington Park and Zoo Railway.This was one of my first experiences on a railway of any kind, and to come back and read up on just how impactful it's history has been has been a breath of fresh air. To see it struggle is rather painful. Preservation may not be a top priority in the minds of those in charge, but that doesn't make it any less important.
Caileb supported: Save the Washington Park and Zoo Railway.As a railfan, I have grown up knowing the zoo railway and loving the steam locomotive. However, I have never had the opportunity to ride the rose loop before. My parents had told me how the railway was like before the rose loop closed, and have always wanted to ride it. I really hope that city officials and metro will realize the historical significance of the rose loop and allow the restoration to begin.
Jordan supported: Save the Washington Park and Zoo Railway.I remember going to the Oregon zoo as a kid and riding the train to the rose garden and the park. That was the highlight of my day at the zoo. I hope you bring it back so my kids can enjoy it as well. The zoo isn't the same without the nice long train ride!
Geralyn supported: Save the Washington Park and Zoo Railway.My favorite outings as a child were visiting the Zoo in the morning and then riding the train to the Rose Garden for a picnic lunch. I would love to see the reopening become a reality so I can make the same memories with my own children.
Ashley supported: Save the Washington Park and Zoo Railway.You’re not alone — a community of supporters is ready to back you.
