Houston METRO Light Rail from NC3D.com on Vimeo
Via Swamplot comes pretty, pretty pictures of the proposed light-rail lines Metro is building.
See!! Swooping visuals as you zoom in from the skies and glide past trains and Second Life pedestrians!!
Hear!! Light-rail trains that sound like Santa’s sleigh ho-ho-hoing its way though town!!
Be amazed!! As — right before your eyes — Metro creates new development where there had been none!!
Note: Your actual mileage may vary. And as far as we can tell, there are no pretty shots of the light-rail line tearing up Richmond in Montrose.
