Spring has sprung boys and girls.....

This "SMART' project management team continues to amaze me......with the failure to respond to issues with purpose, or to do much about anything in a very timely manner, or to communicate effectively.

And, since this is about SMART, this thread also brings out the usual coterie of train haters, whacko's, and whiners, with the usual pointless whiny drivel, and the conflations about CHSRA, and the vast conspiracy theories.

I've actually been involved in planning the public "roll out" of new LRT lines, and this is the most screwed up rail project "roll out" I've ever seen. It was my experience that you start preparing your roll out PR and dedication ceremonies, at least 3 months before the date of actual start up. So no date, is not indicative of any roll out before the "end" of this "Spring"...(maybe Spring 2018...?).

I only hope it will be in operation by the end of summer, before the SPHS&TS meet in the Fall. Since I actually like trains, and I'd actually like to ride it. And, maybe I will be able to ride it, someday....?
