    Every time I take this train it's delayed. It's pretty ridiculous that a city can't even manage a simple light rail system. Seattleisdying

    Driving used to be fun but not anymore…read more I took Driver's Ed in high school. Studied the WA DOL manual. Got up at 5am on the weekends and mastered parking maneuvers in empty parking lots. Practiced driving on I-5 and steering control on E Mercer Way. Passed the written and driving tests. It was a milestone celebration unlocking freedom and independence at 16 years old. Learned how to use the stick shift and feared the red light at 15th & Spokane St. on rainy days. Drove to Dick's on Capitol Hill with friends. Never had to share the road with electric bikes and scooters because they didn't exist. Never saw distracted drivers with smartphones because these devises weren't available to the public yet. We only had to worry about cars with California plates, occasional BC plate, or someone who said, "DMV." ;p Driving in Seattle is different now. Traffic is worse. Nobody gives the "Thank you" wave anymore. I know someone who's been driving well over 10 years and they slapped a yellow New Driver sticker on their car and uses it as an excuse to drive like a crazy person. On I-5 I saw a guy texting at the wheel, saw a girl playing a game on her phone at the wheel. Cars without license plates, cars with expired tabs. People driving in the Bus Only lane, people driving with high beams. Motorcycle lane splitting. Witnessed illegal left turns from the far right lane and people driving down the yellow center lane. A lot of these habits and behaviors didn't happen when I first started driving. Seems like the WA DOL manual doesn't apply anymore. Unwritten driving rules taught and passed down by old school Seattleites are fizzling out. Those OGs have moved to Clark County near the WA/OR border, Eastern WA, out of state, and out of country. Gas is over $6+ a gallon and if theres an event near the stadiums parking can be between $70-$120. So if someone asks me why I take public transit, I have many reasons why. I take the light rail when my destination is near a station. I take it for peace of mind. I take it to save money. I've become mindful of my carbon footprint. The 2 Line trains from the Eastside are newer and cleaner than the workhorse 1 Line trains. There's the occasional smelly person, the sleeper, and the tweaker but I know have a choice to sit or stand away from them or get up and move. No fare gates or platform screen doors at the stations. Signage and announcements could be better too. As for the near future, I want to attend roll out celebrations for the Graham St. and Boeing Access Road infill stations. I'm also looking forward to the West Seattle and Tacoma expansions.

    Overall pretty good with my experiences with Link. On our trips to Seattle if we are planning to…read morejust go to neighborhoods where the train stops through then we definitely utilize that over driving. There are a lot of shortened operation times due to upgrades, maintenance and expansion. As large as the Seattle metro area is I'm surprised there wasn't public transit train installed and with good coverage of stops long ago. But it seems to be happening now. I think of Campbell Scott in the movie Singles and how his plan gets shot down for a broader commute expansion with trains for a plan he submitted. It almost feels like an inside joke and maybe it always was or has been for a long time living in the metro area. Recently we rode on the new expansion that goes to Federal Way. We rode the train up from the large transit center and garage there and it was nice and smooth. A bit long but so much less stress not having to drive. I have my Orca Card handy with me and it's easy on and easy off. Overall good experiences with this train system!

    The train takes you straight from the airport to the city. I paid $6 for a round trip. One way is…read more$3.50 or $3 I think. This is a lot cheaper than the train in Denver that does the same thing! Very convenient as you don't have to deal with traffic. Also lots of staff present! So it feels very safe. It makes many stops

The security officer at mount baker station approached me and asked if I was ok after getting down the train everyone they can help but for the Security lady for the station she is on the one side than the other gentleman doing the same job he is on the other side. This lady was kind you wanna stop here. Take a deep breath then keep going!! nice lady. OK that means it's not just.

    Twin Peaks fanatics do not sleep on this tour! We had an absolutely phenomenal experience! I loved…read morebeing able to just sit back and be driven to all the places we needed to see, and David is amazing with trivia and all things Twin Peaks! He was also super responsive and accommodating with our group and dates, much more than some other fan options we had looked at. Super professional, and attention to detail was noted on every turn. He even let self guided tourists take pics with an amazing sign he has made for photography. Not a rushed tour at all, and was reasonable for my father who could not walk super far or on much elevation. We even got to eat our pie at a leisurely pace, and they stopped by a local store to find local artists swag and merch for sale that went way beyond your normal souvenir. Musts: The Red Room upgrade and Deputy Jesse! Worth it for sure! Deputy Jesse (James Grixoni) has worked with David Lynch and has a super interesting perspective for true Lynch fans to appreciate. He was also just a really cool dude to hang with for the day. I had not rewatched season 3 as much as the first seasons, but found real value in his insights and stories. Fave stop: Ronnette's Bridge

    Truly, the best fan tour I've ever been on. I recommend taking the deluxe package, which is well…read moreworth your time and money. David makes the experience so authentic, it's amazing . My wife booked us the deluxe package where we got to hang out with and hear stories from James. Grixoni who plays dept. Jesse Holcomb from Twin Peaks the return. Both Guys were super friendly and fun to hang out with and the day just flew by we were having so much fun. David also goes above and beyond throwing in dozens of little extras here and there along the way can't wait to take it again.!

    The King Street Union Station is only few blocks from the Seattle Seahawk's Lumen field Stadium…read more Actually the ramp from the station to street level has a wonderful view of the arena. The station primarily servers Amtrak trains, but there's adjacent entrance to the subway line as well, accessible via the ramp. The main building of the station has the iconic clock tower. The station's interior was also beautiful, with high ceilings, art decor on the walls, marble floors and shafts. There were plenty of benches for passengers to sit. Multiple displays were showing the arrival times of the trains. The atmosphere inside the station was much nicer than its exterior suddronding. Once we got to the station, we went to the baggage drop off area. A friendly staff member behind the counter helped us with weighing both of our luggages, tagging them and lining them up for the train. Our train arrived at the platform on time. Our tickets were checked at the door. Staff members were available on the platform to help us find the correct car. Overall I had a wonderful experience of boarding Amtrak train for the first time ever from this station.

Checked baggage is available at both Seattle (King St) and Portland (Union Station). Passengers can also check up to four bags, first two free, next two with charge, 50 lbs per luggage. Lots of benches for travelers. Coffee station. Bathroom is good. Information board is clear. There was a homeless guy with blood on the head came to sit on a bench. Security came and asked if they need to call ambulance. Some words exchanged. Didn't escalate the situation. We left around that point. I think the security handled it well. Hopefully the guy got medical attention.
