Wish I could take any public transportation at all but I had to be born in a rural area.

In Seattle the light rail is great. When it isn't delayed

When it isn’t delayed

this happens very rarely in my experience. I can recall one delay due to an accident on the road (columbia city station area) and one delay because they were doing the shift change on the other side of mount baker and the replacement driver wasn't there at all.

neither was particularly long. been regularly riding since 2016

On one hand, yes.

On the other hand, have you ever had a bus entirely to yourself with nobody but the driver on it? Shit rules.

I don't have a pic but the lightrail in seattle also has advertisements from mullvad, which is kinda unexpected.
