While I love the idea of the Silver Line, I feel like it's going to be on the backburner for years to come because of one major problem - Union Station. According to the old website, the line would have to branch off the current Gold Line station both north & south of Union Station, requiring not one, but two new junctions to accommodate both the Silver Line and the Gold/Blue Line. After what we've went through with Expo recently, I see this being a seriously difficult hurdle - not to mention the fact that the junctions will be elevated this time! But the junction would be grade seperated.....which is better, right?

I'm beginning to think it's better for it to run on Main St/Las Tunas. There's just so many more opportunities along that route than the ACE ROW.
