Steve Carter
I'll add my worth,GREAT SHOT MAN !
Keep'm comin ! And,
Nice transit website with lots of pages and links but many of them apppear to be outdated. Especially with the macro issues of funding and building, they frequently refer to 2007 as though it were in the near future.
But I really mean to compliment you on your photo. WOW!
I wonder if there's any way for a talented amateur to offer that to one of the principal Japanese companies involved in the making -- for their PR, annual report, etc??
Way to go!

And before I forget it, Steve, !
Thanks!
The cars are a product of a colaboration between Kinkisharyo and Mitsui of Osaka, Japan. They have been assembled somewhere in Everett WA.
Here's a link to a SoundTransit web page about the equipment:
