[quote user="videomaker"][quote user="Samantha"][quote user="videomaker"][quote user="4merroad4man"] In my opinion, and based on watching a significant number of your previous commentaries, it was a political point of view and did nothing to answer the OP's question, which was about Austin light rail's progress, not about the trials and tribulations of its birth, or whether it is a good investment or viable in the future.Thanks for answering the original question.  Sorry if you were offended.[/quote]  Thanks 4merroad4man for your info..[/quote]This was your original question:  "Is there anyone on this forum in or around Autin,Tx? Can anyone provide info on Austin's light rail progress? Saw a pic of it in the June issue of Rairoad-Railfan Mag today..." I responded regarding the proposal for a light rail line in Austin.  The line from Leander to downton Austin is a commuter rail line running in a heavy rail environment.  It does not fit the normal definition of light rail.  Your question did not mention coming to Austin to look at equipment, etc.  It is hard to respond to a question that is not stated clearly.[/quote] Samantha, EXCUSE ME ! When I asked for information I certainally did not ask for everyone in Austins POLITICAL OPINONS ON THE SUBJECT now did I? BUT I GOT it ! A BUNCH, So please answer the question if you can ! Where is it being tested and what time of the week,days,nights evening are w/ends do they,are they testing the equiptment, whatever you want to call it, light rail, commuter rail, or horse drawn trolleys,Im not interested in anyones political views of what they think of it,just operation information... IS this specific enough?[/quote]A view on whether light rail is the best solution for area public transit has nothing to do with politics.  It is an economics and technical issue.Contact Capital Metro.  They may be able to help you.
