Central Link light-rail to Tukwila push run!

June 14, 2008 at 3:27 pm


Sound Transit pushed the ST 105 to Tukwila Station before parking it next to I-5 near 144th Avenue for “public” viewing.

It’ll be visible to all along I-5 and it’s already caused quite a stir..all positive :D

Pictures can be viewed here – I only resized them.

I’ll update the captions and such later on and a full story on Monday.

I stumbled on the Link Train rolling down MLK – it was a wonderful to see.

By the way, that’s me on the far left in IMG_8814 pushing my son in his tricycle. I’m not sure how I didn’t notice you taking pictures, Brian.

I saw the train on my way to the airport this morning. At first I was confused about what was going on, as there seemed to be a car parked diagonally across the tracks right in the front of the train. The car also had a white flag hanging out the drivers window like you’d see when a car breaks down.

My first thought on seeing the scene was “Oh great… somebody somehow managed to drive onto the tracks and block the train all before rail service has even begun. This is why we can’t have nice things, Seattle…”

So how long is it going to be there? I would love to go take some pictures.
