I rode the train to work today!

Monday, April 28th, 2008 @ 11:52AM

Choo-choo!

UTA’s Frontrunner is finally running and I decided to test it out for my commute today.  I boarded at about 8:40 in Farmington and arrived at Salt Lake Central at about 9:10.  Then I hopped on a Traxx train and arrived at Trolley Station in time for my 10 am shift.  Things were a little off schedule this morning, but it is their first live day with commuters.  I have to walk a couple blocks to our studio, but it was fine.  I expected the trains to be crowded, but at the time I rode it was very comfortable.  I might ride an earlier train tomorrow morning to see what that’s like.  The cool thing about it is you can go to http://www.rideuta.com and enter your departure and arrival destinations and the time you wish to arrive and it will plan your trip for you.  It’s pretty sweet.

    Tomorrow. Train ride. It will be the adventure of a lifetime for two nerds who work at a radio station.

    We ride trains, eat at Paradise Bakery, and write books. If this doesn’t sound the least bit “yuppy” to you, something is wrong.
