WP: District wrestling with how to fix streetcar line’s numerous flaws

I would never have expected such incompetence from a city that is half black.

After all, everything else in D.C. runs so well.

The Washington Post reports: Broken pieces of rail have already appeared. Streetcar doors scrape against platforms. Switches that guide 35-ton vehicles from one stretch of track to another occasionally don’t work.

In a new assessment released Friday, outside experts found “no fatal flaws” in the District’s fledgling streetcar system. But there are flaws, and many are serious.
