The Blue Line will be 25 this July.

This is the first of about a thousand segments that will be used to build the elevated trackway for the S. 200th Link Extension. This segment was made in Sound Transit's casting yard in Enumclaw. Building the trackway will be similar to the method used to build light rail in Tukwila along I-5, SR 599 and SR 518. The segments will be pre-cast in Enumclaw, shipped directly to the site and then lifted into place by a horizontal crane or a gantry. The gantry should arrive in SeaTac this fall.

This is a Siemens Avanto S70 Light Rail Vehicle soundbound on Fannin coming from the underdeveloped Midtown area toward the Museum District. See en.wikipedia.org/wiki/METRORail for info on Houston Metrorail. Right now, we only have one LRT line which runs from University of Houston Downtown campus on the north edge of downtown to a station 7.5 miles south. It connects our downtown to the Museum District, the Texas Medical Center and beyond.

The Red Line should be understood as a starter line, not a complete system. In 2012 there should be five more routes in operation in the inner city area and a bit beyond. I am a civic activist who helped write the 2007 Draft Environment Impact Statement for the University Line and participated in the route selection process.

Thurs. the 17th walkabout to Waterfront Park. But Sun just to bright and hot for my liking.

Edmonton was the first modern light rail in North America when it opened in 1978.
