Toonerville Trolly Update!

So Monday afternoon, one of Seattle's Toonerville Trolleys derailed - just before rush hour. Now it is creating havoc.

Had Seattle opted for BRT - Bus Rapid Transit - a disruption like this would be a minor annoyance that could be quickly and easily routed around.

Fixed systems are totally inflexible. The tax payers should never have been sold such a White Elephant! Next issue will be snow and ice. Freezing rain shuts the Portland MAX Toonerville down predictably every winter ...

Streetcars and Trolley buses still have SO much more charm (despite a mishap like this) Buses and cars have fumes and are bad for the environment! PERIOD!

PERIOD!

Well, that sure in hell shut down further discussion ...

By the way, yelling is not acceptable behavior.

Period.
