Opening for review tonight. Courcelles (talk) 19:33, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

First, nothing objectionable in the refs or the images.
"Amtrak began Cascades service to Tukwila on June 1, 2001, after contributing $1 million for the station's construction." 1 million for the temporary station or the permanent one?
- Fixed.
Any hope of traffic figures on Sounder?
- The latest figures are from 2016 and aren't in the same format as Amtrak's, so I'd prefer not to use them for now.
Should the AMtrak passenger count be mentioned in the prose?
- Since I don't have complete Sounder statistics, I'd rather keep it out of the prose.

Really good work. Grasping at straws here. Courcelles (talk) 19:57, 25 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Courcelles: Thanks for the review. I've answered the questions above, but wouldn't mind adding the ridership counts if they're really necessary. Sounder Bruce 02:40, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Very well, I can see your points about ridership counts. Really well-written piece of work, I suspect it'll show up at FAC before long. Promoting. Courcelles (talk) 13:22, 26 April 2018 (UTC)[reply]
