Lovely city! It reminds me of Melbourne Australia, my home town. Melbourne has a much bigger tram network with about 150 miles of tracks. It is very popular and a city and suburban mainstay.
Enjoyed the limited amount of cab driver's view. Super camera speed left me dizzy. Why not use regular speed but cut out waiting at stops and at traffic lights?
I'm from the Kansas city area, and the cars are always full or almost full! the crowdedness reminds me of a Japanese subway! There's hardly ever a need to use the request stop buttons since someone is always at every stop! I usually get on and off the streetcar at the crossroads station! There's lots of parking there, so you don't have to find a closer spot near the Sprint Center or Union Station! 3:12 a PCC streetcar is now on display at this corner! It used to be on display in front of union Station! I have yet to photgraph the PCC streetcar next to the CAF streetcar!
Sochea Johnson I actually think cities should have grade separated transit, like subway, maglev, monorail. Something that doesn’t get stuck in traffic and something that doesn’t add to traffic.
@@Luke_Starkenburg may not have the funding for it. Or the talks between RIDEKC and whoever controls the street patterns there, didn't happen. Similar situation here in Philly where transit priority was supposed to be on all 6 trolley lines in the city, talks broke down between SEPTA and Streets Dept sometime after only 2 lines (10 & 15) had sensors and transponders installed.
How is this city guys?? Please give me real details. I’m from the east coast and need a change in my life. Heading somewhere in the Midwest but have not decided where yet for the first year
em1ownerify It’s in Kansas and Missouri. 1.1 million residents on each side of the state line. The safest and best suburbs are in Kansas. The culture and night life is in Missouri.
I know de Wey brudda thanks for the reply. How does that work out living on the Kansas side and working on the Missouri side? Any differences? I’m also considering Oklahoma City, Indianapolis, and maybe somewhere is Colorado. For the winters how is the road clearing and what about job pay and availability? I’m a 6 year vw technician so I’d probably relocate to that, but not sure if the pay will be similar so cost of living is really need to determine. What about crime rates?
em1ownerify , jobs are growing steadily and the job pay is the second highest in the nation compared to cost of living(which is very cheap). Especially if you’re working on cars because almost everyone drives. People are starting to leave Colorado because of the traffic and the high home prices. There’s also a homeless people problem in Denver because of the marijuana. Only upside there is mountains. Oklahoma City is half the size. Not much to do in comparison and it feels like the south not the Midwest. As far as Indianapolis, it’s similar to Kansas City but Kansas City has light rail(streetcar) downtown which they are now extending. Indianapolis only has busses. The other thing is Indianapolis is really flat and Kansas City is hilly and has more green. Compared to what most people think it is actually on the hillier side of cities I’ve been too.
em1ownerify as far as crime goes it’s pretty much safe everywhere except for part the east side, it’s just a north south strip on prospect ave. I’m white and have ridden my bike and drive around there and nothing happens. It’s just not somewhere I would stand or go outside at night. It’s nothing like St. Louis or anything. Relatively the entire KC area is safe. Let me know if you’re looking more for suburban living or urban living. This city is the most under rated major city in the country. People on the east coast probably think you’re just moving to a farm, but it’s a pretty big city about the size Pittsburg. It’s about where Denver was 7 years ago.
I amold enough to remember street cars back in the 1950's. You could get justabout any where you needed to go on one. Of course the city was much smaller in square miles then. You could get to KCK, as south as 85th street. I think you could get to Independence, and Swope park and Fairland at 74th and Prospect.
My aunt lived in the 900 block of E 94th St. My cousin and I could catch the streetcar on 95th just west of Troost and ride to Waldo where we could catch the Saturday matinee. A dime each way for the streetcar, $.25 for the movie, that left $.55 for food. One of the best uses of a dollar a ten-year-old could experience. It made my visits to KC memorable for a kid from the middle of an Iowa cornfield Thanks for the memories.
@@glebsokolov8016 You can thank ("FUCKING") *GM* for that! They pretty much killed the beautiful Streetcar (especially the PCC-era ones); but it wasn't until more recently that many discover that streetcars -- actually seem a lot more green and environmentally-friendly compared to the automobile. Plus also in a severe snowstorm, it could actually be a lot safer to ride than in a car or any other automobiles!
bushyconn if you go to 0:35, there is a sign saying it's free. I don't know what the plans are for the future, but for the time being it is a free ride!
when ever I see videos of KC , it always looks like a ghost town . The sidewalks are always empty of people . Does downtown have no life outside office workers between 8 am and 6 pm ?

Actually, believe it or not; I think this is actually American made. I think these "new-gen" (as I like to call them) streetcars are actually made in a city in my home-state of Pennsylvania (I think it's near either DuBois, or Clarion).

@@linkskywalker5417 Often a BID or TIF is established to fund transit lines. In those cases, the broader tax base doesn't pay for the system, just those properties that directly benefit from it.
I was there this past August (2016) for the World Science Fiction Convention, and made a pretty good use of the street car while I was there. Including nearly getting knocked off of my feet when some idiot pedestrian wandered in front of the train.
Daniel Munch I absolutely agree! I find it frustrating that light rail and streetcar get stopped often at red lights. Transit should be given signal priority over cars on the road!
Never knew that Light Rial has exploded in popularity over the year, even my former home of Minneapolis. Smaller sized cities like Houston, Kansas City, Charlotte are jumping on this mode of transport. Not wild about these mixing with auto traffic, especially in the CBDs.
I like the expanded use of trains in smaller cities, but I agree with you that mixing trains with auto and pedestrians is a bad idea. It really should be subway or elevated.
Buses and trucks can swerve to avoid a car or pedestrian that may be too close to them. Streetcars and light rail can't swerve or slow down quickly and are involved in many many crashes around the USA and world. I agree that these streetcars can be dangerous and probably are not faster than bus service.

Jon The Great I tend to agree with you. Buses are more flexible and may be faster. Light rail is sexier but also more dangerous for pedestrians and vehicles.
I agree Light rail is way sexier. But for how short that streetcar line is interacting with traffic, they could have saved money with a flex bus. If not it should be elevated or grade separated. But I'm hoping this works out for everyone in KC
That's interesting.
