"First powered light rail vehicle crosses I-90 floating bridge" by Sound Transit (Seattle) - With overhead catenary lines powered, a Link Light Rail vehicle tested crossing the I-90 floating bridge on Lake Washington between Seattle and Bellevue in preparation for early 2026 opening of the full 2 Line. It crossed at increasing speeds from 5mph to 55mph. Testing at night allowed observation where electrical arcs occur, for adjustment of the lines. https://www.soundtransit.org/get-to-know-us/news-events/news-releases/first-powered-light-rail-vehicle-crosses-i-90-floating#Seattle #transit#PNW
