Southeast Light Rail

On my way in via Light Rail this morning, I noticed a sign with http://www.southeastlightrail.com on it. This site tells you about the new light rail that's opening in Denver in a few months. The road part of the T-Rex Project was finished last week, and we couldn't be happier. We finally got direct access to the freeway after 3 years! Aaaahhh, the things you notice with an EVDO card on the train...

Seems that they will be using Siemens SD-100 vehicles, the same type that San Diego Trolley uses. This is a decent and inexpensive city/suburb streetcar capable of going about 60 mph. The placement of the railroad in the middle of a freeway is similar to San Francisco BART. I think this not only allows to cut some construction costs, but will advertise reasonably fast commuter trains to car drivers stuck in the morning traffic. Seems that Siemens got pretty good ties with new rail development on the West Coast and in mountain region. A new Sprinter project in North County San Diego will also use Siemens vehicles, but prettier and larger ones, Siemens Desiro units.
