At present, this article is decorated with a photo of a Turkish BRT system operating in a dedicated right-of-way. While a nice photo, it illustrates the exact ''opposite'' of what this article is supposed to be about. I looked at every single photo in Commons for the [[MBTA Silver Line]], and couldn't find a single one that reflects the traffic-bound day-to-day reality of the Washington Street service. If I have time, I will search for some other systems rated "Not BRT" by the [[ITDP]]. Can anybody find or upload a photo of real-world low-quality BRT service stuck in traffic?

:Good request. I went ahead and fixed this by swapping the old media for a picture of an SBS bus in New York.


On Sep. 6, 2015, I removed an un-cited and dubious "surface subway" reference after a "by whom" tag was ignored for 11 months. If citing a reliable source, feel free to add this back in. [[User:Drabconcert|Drabconcert]] ([[User talk:Drabconcert|talk]]) 8:44, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

Real-world photos needed

At present, this article is decorated with a photo of a Turkish BRT system operating in a dedicated right-of-way. While a nice photo, it illustrates the exact opposite of what this article is supposed to be about. I looked at every single photo in Commons for the MBTA Silver Line, and couldn't find a single one that reflects the traffic-bound day-to-day reality of the Washington Street service. If I have time, I will search for some other systems rated "Not BRT" by the ITDP. Can anybody find or upload a photo of real-world low-quality BRT service stuck in traffic?

Good request. I went ahead and fixed this by swapping the old media for a picture of an SBS bus in New York.

On Sep. 6, 2015, I removed an un-cited and dubious "surface subway" reference after a "by whom" tag was ignored for 11 months. If citing a reliable source, feel free to add this back in. Drabconcert (talk) 8:44, 6 September 2015 (UTC)
