Ameen DaCosta, Jacob Champlin, Paul Liu and Winnie Zhuang â each studying either city planning, transportation engineering, plus a friend, Chance Wen, recently embarked on a high-speed mission to hit every single BART station along every line. 'Everyone's been asking us, 'Why would spend hours on a Saturday to do this?' and I think it's just a love for transit,' DaCosta said.
'We had to step out of the train at some of them run out to the platform, grab a photo really quick and make sure to hop on before the doors closed again,' DaCosta said. It all nearly came to screeching halt when a single missed connection almost cost them the title. 'We ran up the stairs and the doors closed right in front of us. We had to wait another eight minutes,' DaCosta said. The drama of it all even caught the eye of BART officials.
