Making some folks mad. Part of the problem is the incredible rise in Seattle property values. Maybe they should have given the former owners first rights to buy the land back, but they were not planning for the monorail to go belly up. They never realized that they would be unloading the property again. They must have not drawn up "first right to repurchase back" contracts at the time they condemned and purchased the properties. <BR/><BR/>Now they are trying to get the most bang for the buck by selling for what the market bears. If they make a profit on the property sales, they pay off their outstanding debt faster. There are also a lot of people who are mad at the monorail because the tax is still being imposed even though the monorail is not being built. The tax will stay on until all the outstanding debt is paid. Profit from property unloading helps them retire the debt faster.Theslowlane Robert Ashworthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10082164332880198884noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5311425.post-1143506587221419192006-03-27T16:43:00.000-08:002006-03-27T16:43:00.000-08:00I agree with you: themonorail people and Sound Tra...I agree with you: the<BR/>monorail people and Sound Transit need to get together.

Switching also enables conventional rail trains to select routes at Y or intersections, so one high volume track can handle trains to many destinations.<BR/><BR/>Building a system that locks trains to a single track in more or less a closed system just seems to limit the economic viability.<BR/><BR/>Or, does someone have diagrams of monorail systems that can change tracks?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5311425.post-1127675917549084882005-09-25T12:18:00.000-07:002005-09-25T12:18:00.000-07:00Sound Transit's line to airport as well as most of...Sound Transit's line to airport as well as most of Portland's Max lines may be the smartest idea. Just take up a lane and go down the street. At least I think that is what the non tunneling south leg of Sound Transit does. <BR/><BR/>Yes the Lake Washington Dinner Train occupies a great corridor. It has potential. <BR/><BR/>As for mail order brides, there are advertising bots that leave posts now. I decided to remove some of those automated posts.

Why spend billions of dollars to elevate a light rail line so as not to interfere with automobile traffic? Cars are a rapidly obsolescing form of transport, doomed by the approaching peak in global oil production to become far too expensive to operate.<BR/>Light rail is only expensive when the infrastructure has to elevate or burrow to accomodate cars. Better to use existing right of ways for rail (e.g. freeway lanes, surface streets, and the abandoned BNSF line that parallels I-405 and is currently used by only the "Spirit of Washington" Dinner Train in the evenings), and pay for any problems with at-grade crossings out of the budget for auto infrastructure instead of having light rail have to pay for cars to cross rail lines safely.<BR/>It is such a waste of resources to keep pouring money into auto infrastructure, and it serves to discourage mass transit. If we stop widening roads for cars and let drivers sit in jams choking on their own exhaust, bus and rail ridership will increase dramatically.<BR/>Mail order brides? What the hell is that about?
