I was a bit pessimistic about this being possible, but to see that we did this in the 1984 Olympics without any light rail is pretty amazing to hear.

    They have been building a lot though, many lines are supposedeto open. If they are enough is an open question of course.

    They could plan and build a few more lines in the next few years if they wanted, but it requires vision and such that we don’t see in the us so they won’t. it is still possible.

      Yeah from what I read the biggest issue (besides not nearly enough lines, but like the first comment said can’t build that much in 4 years, but hey let’s try…), is frequency and dependability on the rail.

      They need to prove that their rail system is frequent enough and has the capacity to carry olympic crowds. That’s what I want to see, Metrolink and their subways running every 5-10 minutes, proving they can get people moving
