    My bus driver

    I live in the Chicago area, but decided to take the bus to visit my friend in Dupont. Couldn't have had a better experience it was on-time clean warm and the drivers were exceptional kind and helpful. My last Driver has been working for sound transit for 36 years and she's amazing. I'm grateful for the public transportation and people that drive.

    I mainly used Sound Transit's public transit system to get to and from the airport to downtown Seattle. It was quick, convenient, and had regular departure times. The cars could be cleaner though. They have these older seats covered in cloth that are worn and some with stains as well.

    I wonder how long this piss stain will remain here..?

    My biggest complaint is the lack of cleanliness on the train. I don't know why they wld chose cloth seats.

    Reliable transportation to and from the outlying areas to Seattle. This review applies to the Sounder Commuter Rail (train). Good tip is to make sure you print the train schedule, show up early enough to buy a ticket and get parking. If you are going to King Station in Seattle, you do have an option to take the FREE shuttle bus so you don't have to walk if you don't feel like it. On dry days, no problem but when it is pouring out, why not get on the bus? The problem is making sure you take the right one of course so ask the driver before you board. One thing I found is that you are screwed if you want to get back mid day as the Sounder doesn't run between 9 AM and 3 PM so keep this in mind. Also, don't try to be a freeloader and get on without paying as they do go and do ask to see your ticket and it is about a $124 fine or so. I believe if you purchase an Orca card (prepaid), sometimes your employer will reimburse you for a commuter program. The average price for a one way is about $3 to 4 one way. Also, the inside of the train is well kept but a bit cramped for tall folks with long legs. Some sections have a small table that you can place a laptop or other things. An overhead storage shelf can hold small bags to help free up some space. Go to soundtransit.org if you want to look up their train schedule and other transit services they provide.

    A truly inconsistent service, impossible to rely on for a daily commute. You're much better off driving a car.

It runs through historical neighborhoods and serves students who attend Seattle Central College and UW. It travels by fun, vibrant storefronts of coffee shops, restaurants, and retail. You'll also see public art on sidewalks. If you continue to take it NB past Capitol Hill you'll eventually cross the University Bridge (opened in 1919) and into the U District. Right now you can take this bus from downtown Seattle to see the cherry blossoms at The Quad and the U District Cherry Blossom Festival. Sure you can take the light rail from Downtown to Capitol Hill to the U District but if you want to take the scenic route then take the 49.

Every time my…read morefriends and I drive to Cap Hill, it would take at least 15 minutes to find a free parking spot in the evenings. It is also because I don't know the area that well enough. So this bus is great! The best part of the bus is that it runs super late until 2am or 3am! I feel bad for bus drivers who work late and have deal with super drunk people. But if I want to have a late night out with friends on the Hill or even in Downtown, I could definitely rely on bus 49! It does seem to take very long, though. The bus is not very fast and stops VERY frequently. The bus is often on time. The bus, however, seems very dirty most of the time. Not sure why that is.

We took an Uber to the Airbnb when we arrived and had to make our way to the airport to pick up a car in the morning. So we decided to try Seattle's public transportation. The airport website had an easy to use tool that gave us options for getting to the airport. The option included the bus, the train, and our feet. The bus stop was right across the street from where we were staying and we waited less than five minutes before hopping on. The bus was busy, fast, and efficient.
