BART launches Transbay Tube Trivia Contest to mark 50 years of service
BART has launched an online trivia contest to help celebrate a half-century of service in the Transbay Tube. Do you know how fast trains travel through the Tube? How deep it is?
One lucky person who correctly answers these questions will be chosen at random to receive a $50 gift card to Railgoods, BART's official merch store. The winner will be announced at an event to be held later this month (the winner does not need to be present to collect the prize).
The contest is live now and runs through Thursday, September 12.
