Mcfarlanes wet dream comes true

While McFarlane has undoubtedly been the worst general manager in the history of Trimet one does have to give him some credit for the creation  of city/state of light rail in Portlandia. Is all this rail an improvement over the once famous bus service that could take you almost anywhere you wanted to go? That's a matter of opinion.
 
Included on the map is also the closed loop of the Portland Streetcar Central Loop. Both routes are shown as “future service” and while the CL line future service is not in doubt, the new map answers no questions about future Orange & Yellow line service. Where will the Orange Line end on the north end of the route? Will the Yellow Line extend further south as some of the new platforms indicate?
The new maps provide no answers to these questions and frankly, I wonder why Trimet even went to the trouble of producing new maps that will be obsolete a year from now.
