The Trolley Problem: New Seattle Streetcars May Not Fit on Tracks
- olliej 8y agoThis is like the new bart cars in the Bay Area. They can’t run on all the tracks, because “reasons”: I cant recall whether they damage existing tracks or what it was, but regardless they can only operate on one line. I do not understand why when ordering new trains/trolleys the cities are not including contractual obligations that the cars work on existing infrastructure.
