Here is my challenge to everyone on this thread. Ride it tomorrow between Iron Point and Sacramento Valley Station. Then testify before the Sacramento RT Board about your experience at the next Board Meeting. These new cars are the product of numerous public comments.

Wow! That’s fantastic! This has been decades in the making. Finally Sacramento Light Rail will be on par with the other Light Rail systems in North America, or perhaps even a step ahead. Great job SacRT! What took you so long?
