| My trip was great! Even a non-speaker of mandarin, I made it from the far end of a bus line to Subway # 1, transferred to #2 at Peoples Square and found the Maglev terminal without problems. Ride was very smooth, no problems with sightseeing out the windows either. No sound or vibration that would compare with even the Shinkansen.
But the bus rattled, the brakes squealed and it took awhile. The subways were jammed tight wuth people in midafternoon. Would be a problem to take much luggage that way. Went by taxi later when we left with luggage, a nice trip for us but not for folks merging onto the highway-at one point backed up behind an accident. Note the picture of the switch (turnout) connecting the two roadways. It looks like they have bendable sections to accomplish this! |
