Sounder Northline (Everett-Seattle) for Sound Transit service between Seattle and Everett was canceled Thursday night 1/21/16 due to mudslides south of Edmonds.

Riders were bussed on Thursday evening.

Sounder service is cancelled for Friday morning.

Edmonds – Seattle: Special buses will depart Edmonds Station in the Amtrak parking lot at 6:41 am, 7:11 am and 7:41 am. Riders may also board regularly scheduled Community Transit route 416 at Bay 2 departing at 5:45 am, 6:15 am, 6:34 am, 6:55 am, and 7:42 am.

Heavy rains, combined with King tides, created problems in the low lying areas of Edmonds, not just over the tracks.

  1. It looks like the Salish (river) is crossing regardless of our desire to have a parking lot there - when we will learn not to thwart nature's preferred paths?
