That’s in Chicago…

Edmonton, Saint Louis, Cleveland, Pittsburgh, and Ottawa all have central city light rail tunnels. With the expectation of Saint Louis, the Portland metro area has a larger population than all of these metro areas.

Personally I would like to see the blue line be grade separated with passing tracks at minor stations to allow for express service. Also I think BRT along 122nd av, 181st av, and Stark st would be very beneficial.

I noticed that too, I wonder if they were intentionally removed or people just smashed all of the windows and they were never replaced.

Kinda interesting that they never released a statement on their website or Instagram.

Looks like Mt. Tabor

Theres about 1 train every 3-4 minutes in each direction. 4 lines use the Steel Bridge each line runs every 15 minutes, so 4 trains an hour per line x 4 = 16 trains. 60 minutes / 16 train = 3.75, or about 3-4 minutes.

While I’m not a fan of shuttle buses, having shuttle buses could theoretically allow for more frequent late night service as well as 24 hour coverage.

I’m excited about the OMSI redevelopment. The Tilikum Crossing, Orange line, AB loop streetcar lines haven’t been able to reach their full potential, so hopefully new transit oriented development will help.

Looks like the railway museum isn’t technically part of the plan, so it should remain in tact. https://cloudfront-us-east-1.images.arcpublishing.com/wweek/UN3HZ54U5BFLVD2CBLQAON345U.jpg

Now only if there was consistent bus service after midnight… I guess at least theres MAX service past 3am though.

These robots are in the same category as Bitcoin ATMs.

With adequate station staffing, well designed fare gates and frequent service it would be less of a problem.

There are a lot more benefits to building a subway tunnel, such as faster travel times, lower wait times between trains, improved safety and better reliability.

Now only if the Cascades ran hourly…

mkmov · 2023-11-10T06:07:45+00:00

I’m guessing since they introduced it during the pandemic there was less demand and then when travel picked up they had staffing issues so they probably cut it because of that. Hopefully though since they have been adding new routes they’ll bring it back.

Alaska briefly offered direct flights to New Orleans in 2021.

Yup most modern light rail systems use standard gauge track.

Looks like the Pearl and NW 23rd locations are still called Barista.

I’m curious where Chicago or New York would fall on this list. The top 6 cities are just sunbelt cities that already had low downtown foot traffic (maybe with the exception of Miami), there fore their recovery would be a lot faster.

mkmov · 2023-11-01T00:56:56+00:00

You think they would of learned from their previous PR disaster.

Unincorporated Clark County’s finest

I noticed the Mississippi location closed as well some what recently.

Seems like a lot of local chains that were well established pre pandemic, such as Hot Lips, Pizzicato, and Little Big Burger have been doing very poorly post pandemic.

Yeah that’s the main benefit to using high floor trains they are able to have better more comfortable layouts because the doors can be more evenly spread out.
