This seems like such an exciting project. I live in Macon, GA and while I probably would never use it, I'd like more feedback from folks that do use it.

Did they deliver? Were there issues? Are there still issues? How much better has this made things for folks? Worse?

Yeah... love the video, but all things that are shiny aren't necessarily actually great. ;) I'm optimistic, but skeptical. .

The first thing I saw when zooming in on the map was two trains approaching head-on. I had to remind myself that this is a map and not a plan.

Now I'd love another zoom step where you can see the tracks and the signalling.
