A Ramble Along Route 8, Part 1, Northbound, Spring, 2023
This is a weird one for me because I kinda hate this bus. It is always late. This section is aligned north/south but where this episode ends and the next one begins, is the break from its north/south and east/west sections. Ridership is much heavier on its e/w section but it is much, much longer than many even know. Seattleās Central District is connected through Madison Park and Capitol Hill to Lower Queen Anne via this route and is weirdly balanced. It also reminds you that 8 rhymes with late. Enjoy!
