‘“We believe additional [Sounder] trips would be supported by the public and would address ridership demand in 2036,” Saxe said. If we were to engage with BNSF on the possibility of adding new trips, we would continue to track ridership trends as well.”
Saxe added that Sounder capital projects uniquely qualify for Federal Railroad Administration grants and financing, unlike Sound Transit’s other modes. ' https://www.theurbanist.org/2024/06/15/sounder-south-frequency-boost/ #CommuterRail #RegionalRail #Sounder #Seattle #Tacoma @urbanistorg

The most important rail project that no one seems to know about in Southern California is Link US, which will create run-through tracks, meaning Union Station will have run-through service rather than be a stub.
This service is as important to future #regionalrail #highspeedrail #intercityrail service in Southern California as the Regional Connector project was to Metro Los Angeles. #rail #hsr #California #LosAngeles

“The days of Sounder as just a commuter rail system could be numbered. Rethinking the southern line could set the agency on a glide path for what Sounder is destined to become: regional rail. Expanding the scope of this strategic effort just a little bit more could illuminate how to realize a wider Sounder network in Pierce County and even future-proof expansion to Olympia.” https://www.theurbanist.org/2023/05/22/sounder-south-could-get-service-boost-and-more-tracks-near-tacoma/ #Sounder #Rail #PassengerRail #RegionalRail #seattle #Tacoma @urbanistorg
