It is widely documented that people with autism often have a natural affinity for trains, and BART couldn't be more thrilled to celebrate that during #AutismAcceptanceMonth . See where the announcements are playing and listen to the recordings:

in a more serious tone: its true autistic people can like trains, but it's correlative, not causational. special interests can be anything, and trains are a common one... because theyre common, and lets be real, pretty cool from neruodivergent and neurotypical perspectives alike

i wanna clarify, the upzoning of denny and SLU is almost entirely *not* gentrification. gentrification is specifically when lower-class and often minority residents are priced out, but next to nobody lived here, it was mostly light industrial

i have to say, my main issue is in the phrasing - the tone of "...people with autism often have a natural affinity for trains..." is reminiscent of early 1900's pseudoscience in its absolutism, and especially in the word "nature"
