# While the ability to run trains across the floating bridge continues to be a major impediment to getting the full 2 Line running, other issues along the existing 1 Line could pose even greater challenges to maintaining consistent service.
You sound like my wife, which is absolutely a compliment. She was an optimist, I’m a pessimist. Grew up in Seattle with only buses, so I love having Link and want it to be reliable, but it suffers a lot of unscheduled “please stand by” disruptions already, and when a second line is running on the same tracks, I’m … skeptical.
I guess I am on the optimistic side of things. I just see the delays as “growing pains” of a rapidly growing transit network.
As the other guy said, there IS something wrong with the Seattle people here. Could be the leaded fuel from the sea planes, could be the weather, could be all the hippie boomers that moved here in the 80s/90s. (As someone born here as well)
All I know is, hope is what keeps people moving, and me moving, even when facing a fiery infeno like in Toy Story 3.
I have long said that WA is where capital projects go to die. There’s something wrong with the people here and they really have trouble making public services work at a level that is expected in many other states. That said, at least we’re not Idaho.

Did I just do another “your wife”?
