Transit planner just wanting faster buses and less cars.
As other humans they were for sure just as frustrated, though I still draw the line at obeying the law of where to stop and accommodate other road users.

Exacerbated especially today with 90E closed, assuming lots of drivers going north to use 520.

Can confirm we at KCM are working on this! Fleet substitutions are not the norm and we’re investigating ways to have more RR coaches available at all pull out times.

Making slow gains. Lots of interest in operator positions via completed applications—largest bottleneck now is training capacity and we’re working on that, labor has to be involved. We also lose operators to rail and our supervisor ranks regularly, doesn’t help net gains.

AND as someone who was taken to the Illinois railway museum a few times as a kid, it makes my heart happy!!

Was very confused as a current king county metro employee who bought and transported a retired trolley, and why two trollies from opposite coasts were sitting side by side.

Transit agency websites that don’t display routes and schedules well/UI not well thought out.
