Well................it has finally happened! After years of planning and waiting, on most of the cities part, we have joined the ranks of a major city.............or at least to me we have.
Yes, the Austin Metro Train started running today. I took it to work this morning, it left at 7:10 and I got to work around 7:50 or 7:55. Which is on time, or a few minutes late, for me. As long as I get there before my class or around 8 I am fine.
It was great, the train is clean and obviously with no traffic the commute is fantastic!
Actually you wanna hear (read) a secret?????????????
I am on the train RIGHT NOW!!! we have wifi on the train! and as it turned out the walk to work from the station (.9 of a mile) wasn't bad!
gotta go pulling up to my station now :)
