Seattle monorail stalls again

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

SEATTLE — The off-again, on-again Seattle monorail stalled Saturday afternoon, less than a week after its last malfunction. The second train came to pick up the stranded passengers, who were stuck for about 30 minutes.

What you and I need to WANT to know is:

1) Who was at the controls (in the train, at the station, in the control room) during this and previous stalls and why did it take an entire 30 minutes for the second train to arrive?

2) Has anyone checked the power along the beam at this section of the line?

3) Is there a connection problem between the trains and the power on the beam?

4) Will this recurring problem ensure that talk of expansion can never happen?

5) Who stands to benefit?
