** Here's our roundup of "must-read" posts from the week:
------------------------------------------------------------
Facing dire budget cuts during the coronavirus pandemic, Metro asked riders to weigh in on its options during a public hearing. Here's a hint: none of the options are great.

Speaking of Metro problems, a Red Line train carrying more than 100 passengers pulled apart last week, leaving the last six cars of the eight car train on the tracks between Union Station and NoMa-Gallaudet University. The incident is being investigated by the Washington Metrorail Safety Commission.

Montgomery County pedestrians are faring better, with a block of Newell Street in Silver Spring closed to cars this fall to act as a "playstreet." But the magnet for dog walkers and hopscotch could be at the end of its days as the county considers whether to keep it going.

Here's a question we think about a lot: What counts as the Greater Washington region anyway? We consider some of the competing definitions (with maps, obviously).

Finally, read an update on how GGWash is faring financially during these trying pandemic days — and consider helping us find a more secure footing.
