Backstory:
It took 15-20 missed Green Line trains over 5 days to get this footage because several things needed to align:
1. driver doesn't lower the curtain
2. cloudy day (related to 1)
3. no loud people around me
4. I don't mess up recording
Even in this footage (shoutout to the driver who was coorporative with me recording the video) I accidentally stopped recording around Government Plaza, so the video had to start from U.S. Bank Stadium, and there was an interruption at 18:03. I was starting to get frustrated by so many failed attetmpts so I went with this one.

  • I love the light rails up there in Minneapolis and St. Paul, MN area.
  • @KenanTurkiye
    That's interesting. I ❤ trains, trams, take a ride, I have a folder on ''transportation'' (folder 2, in playlists) you will love them too :)
  • @JoeyLovesTrains
    Took this line and the blue line a few times, and I must say, it’s very nice, but the people on it are very questionable
  • @marcus201192
    Thanks can we get the blue line next please? I miss the airport tunnel and the bridge going over lake street station

    Man, Im 2 months out of training! this is not a real look into the green line... first time i was in the cab with my trainer who loves to keep track speed up and i seriously was 2nd guessing my career move... this driver cant be doing more then half track speed.. the green line is a beast for new operators. i do have to say this is a very fun job!
  • @robk7266
    See? The train has signal preemption so it never stops at intersections. It's not that hard Los Angeles
  • @mustang2262
    I'm really glad that Minneapolis has invested in light rail but personally I find that many of the riders are loud and unruly (especially on the green line) which discourages me from using it and I'm sure a lot of other riders feel the same way. I've used public transit in Japan, England, and Germany and in all those countries people are quiet and respectful while riding.

    Can the drivers hear what the passengers are saying? If yes, why don’t they call the cops when they are punching or kicking things?
