The Seattle Monorail was a 3 blocks away from my apartment but I never rode it in five years since I always doubted its realiability. Turns out it got stuck again last saturday http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2008135114_monorail24m.html
Btw, Seattle city owes me 273 dollars that they collected in the name of monorail tax.
