WES Commuter Rail - What Even Is It & What Are My Thoughts?

WES Commuter Rail - What Even Is It & What Are My Thoughts? Hello! Welcome back to TriMet insider. Today we'll talk about the WES Commuter Rail which I just rode yesterday. I wanted to give my reviews, but first, I realized that a lot of people who live in Portland proper probably don't even know what the WES is, so first, I should explain. The WES is a Diesel powered train that connects the suburbs of Beaverton, Tualatin, Tigard, and Wilsonville. A picture included shows what it looks like. Now that we've covered what the train is, let's move into my review of it. I think that this is a wonderful train. It has free Wi-Fi, padded and reclining seats, wonderful staff - there was a mess on the floor that was cleaned up immediately. It's great! Another good thing about the train is the route. The route that it takes is along a wonderful scenic route with mountain views, awesome trees, and a leaf-covered pond that looks as if it could home an alligator.   My only co...

Type 6 MAX Train

Type 6 MAX Train Hello!  This is TriMet insider where we talk about all things TriMet. If you don't know, TriMet is Portland's public transit system. Personaly, I love  riding the MAX (Metropolitan Area eXpress) Train, which goes all the way from Beaverton to City Center to Milwaukie, it's awesome! Anyway.

I Google searched a bit and all of the info was really quite vague. Stuff like: "We expect to have the first Type 6 train in service in 2024." So, it's really not very obvious when we'll be riding one, but I felt like looking at it's pros and cons. I figured I'd start with pros, so here's the list I made: Has a driver's cabin on both sides Has better heating for cold days on the tracks Has more LED lights for indication of whether or not door is available Has super cool LED doors ...

TriMet Interview With K. R. P. Hello! Welcome back to TriMet Insider. Today I interviewed K. R. P. About TriMet. Here is the interview I conducted. Eyvind - Hello, how are you today? K. R. P. - Wonderful! The sun is shining. Eyvind - Today I’ll be interviewing you about general TriMet info. K. R. P. - Sounds great. Eyvind - As I believe, you have been around almost since the beginning of TriMet, is that correct? K. R. P. - Even longer. I remember riding the bus before it was TriMet Eyvind - Do you recall what it was called? K. R. P. - Not quite, It had rose in the name. Maybe something like Rose City Buses. (We later looked this up, it was Rose City Transit). Eyvind - Interesting. I hear that you were part of naming TriMet’s light rail system. What was that like? K. R. P. - Well, I was working in market research and we conducted a survey on behalf of TriMet. They had narrowed down the name for the light rail to about four choices. Eyvind - What were they? K. R. P. - Well, obviously MA...
