So after a weekend of open houses and the first day of service, I have more to say about the new REM than 260 characters allows. I’ll just post this vid I took of the DM-bound platform of McGill station during today’s evening rush. How extraordinary the ordinary can sometimes be.

Traffic was as bad as I’ve ever experienced getting to Citi Field…but very much worth it for #5

Where will the vehicles come from? My understanding is the SoDo maintenance facility was tapped for space and they needed the Eastside facility to support trains to Federal Way at current service frequencies?

Continuing an annual tradition from X…you know it’s Spring because the flowers are blooming…and the Leafs are out!

The stretch from downtown north is really impressive. It’s essentially a full grade-separated subway

It’s an impressive new system…but they need to get the lake crossing finished and open!

The Seattle region is opening up another light rail extension today so I guess I have to fly cross country.
