Danger Train, METRO bus collide near the METRO Palace

THE DANGER TRAIN AND A METRO BUS collided downtown earlier today, right near METRO headquarters (Chronicle, KPRC-2, KHOU-11, KTRK-13, KRIV-26).

Remind us again why so many smart Houtopians think building rail at grade down busy streets is such a good idea?

The spin that eventually comes from METRO's massive PR shop should prove interesting, at least.

ANNE LINEHAN ADDS: Maybe Chief Lambert can explain why METRO's own bus drivers don't understand safety.

UPDATE (02/09/10): Chron print editors thought the story so important they buried it on B3 (with a B1 photo refer).
