Based from the photos, there are really a lot of people who have come to check it out. I guess it’s not that crowded during regular days, I just wonder how it is during the holidays…

As for the light rail, the problem is that our town is too big for the small portion that light rail is covering right now.

You are right. I also think the rail needs to be treated like a train as they do in Portland. Right now it’s a glorified bus on rails. I think it’s going to be a tough sell to the car loving public here as a result.

As for the light rail, the problem is that our town is too big for the small portion that light rail is covering right now. I live in the Far West Valley and I dream of the day that I can get on at Westgate and ride it into town. But, I will park at work (Central and Camelback) and take it to the ballpark or arena for events. Good stuff. Thanks.

me thinks they should have hired these guys

crazy trying to ride on 27th and new years eve

Hah! No kidding Connor. I couldn’t agree more, though my experience in Japan last Summer was not quite that crowded

I find this paragraph to be a little weird.

Thanks Matt – yeah I really should probably read over my writing before I post sometimes.

The Light Rail has Arrived – Try it for Yourself
I would recommend waiting until next year to ride. Mainly because the fare is so cheap that you may as well wait to use it under normal circumstances. In comparison of costs, the T in Boston will set you back $2 for a one way trip. To ride for an unlimited amount of trips all day it costs $2.50 on the Phoenix rail or $1.25 for a one way ride from any point.

I find this paragraph to be a little weird. But I find your new Respond feature to be seriously, ridiculously awesome. Kudos, Good Sir.

Great post Jim! I was frustrated by the lack of a single simple map yesterday. Yours is about perfect.

Thanks Scott! Glad it helped
