Superbfc (talk • contribs) - traffic engineer by profession; but apart from that, I'm a nice person who is really more into rail transport than roads. I created the articles National Tariff System and Haxo (Paris Métro) and have made minor edits on various other rail/rapid transport-related pages.
KU (talk • contribs) - Focusing rapid transit either Mass RT or Light RT.
Thisisbossi (talk • contribs) Mostly assessment and minor edits, but I sometimes do larger modifications.
