    This system was nice, i rode it from SeaTac to University Street station when i was there for PAX West on Labour day weekend, kinda annoys me how the trains say "Doors to MY right/left" should just be "to the right/left" but that is just me nitpicking.

    • @justininwdw

      SgtMays I feel like it has to be that way. Some seats face the opposite way of the driver. So when they say to MY right or left it’s clear

      I have to say as a Seattle Resident, the "Doors to my..." is unique across the US, it is one of those things that just makes ST just that, unique.

      You are correct, the trains travel in each direction so the announcement changes depending on which end is the head.

      @@french1956 WRONG: As a result of the above factors, LRTs travel much faster than streetcars, approaching the speed of subways. In optimal condtions, LRT trains travel at 25 to 30 km/hr, subways at 30 to 40 km/hr while streetcars travel at 10 to 20 km/hr.

    What’s the point of having that tapping thing if there’s no turnstile. So useless

    • @hcs4life21
      @hcs4life21 3 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      It's common for light rail systems to have these Tap & Ride readers and lack turnstiles. Dallas' within the past few years modeled its light rail the same way. As for having turnstiles, it seems to only be common on larger transit systems like New York's subway or Chicago's L train. A ridership factor most likely.

      The police come on the train and check if you tapped the card

    • @queenelizabeth8145
      @queenelizabeth8145 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      it runs mostly on honor system but you could have your card checked by a worker if they pass by so if you don’t pay you’re taking a risk
