Wow. What a persuasive, convincing argument. What's been successful? What evidence do you have that Calgary is successfully running 7th Ave without headway delays due to mechanical, weather, or people incidents? Have you even taken the train through downtown before?

How does that make any sense? Once you build the line, all the focus will be on expansion to the north. No one will want to spend money burying it afterwards at an even higher cost, and we'll stuck with the legacy of that short-sighted decision making. It's a poison pill decision that would probably impact the green line forever.
