Trimet has decided to add Max trains to the Bus Mall mix. I think this is a dumb idea, but they didn't ask me specifically, and so they just kept keeping on with the idea. Dumb idea or no, I got excited when I saw one today. They don't officially move there until August/September, but they are training this month. My line is one that is shifting from the original tracks to the "Transit Mall" as it is referred to now. On the one hand, my walking commute to work will be shorter, but on the other, I will have to walk out of my way to go to the library and church. Also, the beginning of the line won't be as accessable to me. I don't like that so much.

Trains on the bus mall, oh my!
