The video is def the same topic but not plagiarized. B1M is top notch. There are other channels that take B1M word for word and nearly image by image. It is kind of crazy. This channel is solid and is getting better and better.
Not if used in the right way. But I agree Seattle should’ve just upgraded to heavy commuter rail or done something like the Vancouver skytrain but a grade separated system like sound transit light rail should be fine for now.
Link operates as a grade separated light metro and not as a light rail. Stations on the extensions are spaced out to allow the trains to reach 55mph which is on par with light metro. This isn't your slow Toronto street car
@@portcybertryx222For now and a long time. The projection is 700k riders per day and was designed with rapid rail standards. That's basically as high as skytrain is today and that's using LRT tech. That means the system is suitable for the foreseeable future. Seattle isn't going to overtake NYC anytime so it doesn't really need anything better and should focus on finishing the thing rather than retrofitting an excessive amount of capacity it doesn't need by running heavy rail.
not all LRT is created equal. There is slow city LRT with lots of stops that run in mixed traffic, and there is grade separated, elevated, subterranean LRT that zooms by at 55mph and has 3-minute headways on 120 meter 4 car rolling stock. Seattle's ST2 and ST3 is the latter and it really shows how versatile LRT can be.
@@cmdrls212 Link Light rail is not grade-separated, it has a ton of street crossings, and Line 1 runs at-grade in a street median for about 4.4 miles.
BRT for Sound Transit is dumb. The buses don’t get more express than they currently are.

Light rail is the dumbest form of transit there is.
