The trains are running – Phoenix Metro

The trains are running today and it’s been a long time coming.

The cities along the light rail line are having celebrations at various stations and (gasp) light rail is free throughout all of 2008!!!! (Cheap bastards)

According to the radio, wait times are currently 2 hours to get on the trains, at least at the Christown Rectum (er… Spectrum) Mall station.

I swung by the station near my house and the central stargate station (pictured below) and it was busy but it didn’t look like there was a wait.

We’ll try to take the family out tomorrow and ride the rails…
