LYNX Blue Line Grand Opening - Charlotte, NC

Excellent choice of accompanying music. I daresay the only thing that could make this video better is to find a few more LYNX clips to add so the video can match the full length of the song. :)

Woah! Those are some incredibly sexy trains

What is the name of the song???

Google-ing some of the lyrics comes up with "Nu Sensation" by Madison Park.

So now that over a year has passed, how is the train doing? i ask because Norfolk Virginia is opening a station a few miles from me with the same types of trains and operating methods in 2010, cant wait!

Well the first year or so it did way beyond what the estimates were for it, but now that it's been over a year they really don't talk about it much.

During rush hour it seems to be busy all the time, but since I'm not downtown anymore, I can't say how busy it is during the day but I'd imagine its still filling up the trains, but not standing room only, like rush our.

The lynx line follows a Norfolk Southern line for awhile

And 8 months later, charlottes skyline has transformed to point were i can't even recognise any more. This city just wont stop growing, its gaining so major props and social status now.

No, everyone in Charlotte decided to show up and ride it that day!!!! It was free that weekend, so everyone just said, hey there's nothing else to do, let's go ride the light rail!

Charlotte is becoming a very progressive City.
