Lynnwood light rail is super popular — but there’s a problem Parking can run out at Lynnwood by 8:30 a.m., leaving some would-be riders to ditch light rail for yet another I-5 drive. Other stations' garages are filling, too.

If Kitsap Transit can do it, so can Metro!!

mariners fans are my favorite bunch of fans of any team in any sport. i watched the bottom half of the last seven innings standing up in my living room. thanks for letting me hitch a ride

Day 7 of #WeekWithoutDriving

A photo from our (unsuccessful) trip to get the new WSF ORCA card, but having dinner with friends near and far was a worthy consolation.

My parents' cat Sassy, she's SEVENTEEN

Day 6 of #WeekWithoutDriving

No transit photos today, as all I did was visit my parents' house via a carpool. In lieu of buses, y'all may instead have a photo of their cat.

An apparent meteor streaks across the sky on Monday in Seattle, adding to the feeling that train fans were indeed part of a special event. (Nick Wagner / The Seattle Times)

Two amazing sights, all at one moment:

“At nearly the same moment the railcar first entered the I-90 bridge from the Mercer Island side, 11:49 p.m., a thick shower of sparks streaked high above the park, from an apparent meteor.”

Honestly one of the coolest things I've been a part of!

The Lake has been Crossed!

I'll bring Costco pizzas!

Screenshot of text from King County Metro's operator handbook. The text reads: 11.13 Base Routes Coaches scheduled to or from a base or terminal are considered in-service. Operators must accommodate all customers requesting to get on or off the coach at all regular stops on surface streets and SR-520. For base and “Y” routes that operate in areas where bus zones are not posted, make customer stops at the far side of intersections, whenever possible.

I'm starting a new awareness campaign: King County Metro buses signed with a "BASE" or "To Terminal" are in service! You can flag them down and ride! If you see a bus going in the direction you want to go, wave at the driver and ask. It's fun!

Congratulations!!! It was super awesome to meet y'all in person!!

WE MADE IT

Honestly pretty good. Their kiosks take both cash and card iirc which is cool. The only major downside is the lack of a customer-facing soda machine.

buy popcorn? sell popcorn, use the money to buy a laugh track
