This article should not be speedy deleted as lacking sufficient context to identify its subject, because... I accidentally submitted it before I was finished writing the initial version. Delete it if you must, but it will be back shortly. --Feis-Kontrol (talk)03:39, 31 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Removed tag because of information that was added. You might want to think about creating future articles in a userWP:Sandbox so that if you do accidentaly submit it before it is done it will not be deleted for A1/A7 etc. It is also probably easier than using the preview button all the time.PhantomTech (talk)04:07, 31 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Understood. Thanks.Feis-Kontrol (talk)05:09, 31 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

So there are no plans to connect this line to thestate that the city was actually named for? That's truly annoying. ---------User:DanTD (talk)14:07, 9 April 2015 (UTC)[reply]

A: Kansas City, Kansas is named after Kansas City, Missouri (if you would have clicked the link you provided, you would have seen that.) B: The streetcar will only be in KCMO at the moment.Elisfkc (talk)04:13, 16 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Kansas City, MO came first. Then the state of Kansas was named after the city in MO.Pcarn9 (talk)13:11, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Pcarn9: actually, the state is named after theKansa. --Elisfkc (talk)19:24, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Elisfkc: actually, the state is named after theKansas River, just like the city was. The city was named before the state. --Pcarn9 (talk)20:04, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I wondered about the numbers in the infobox - having 16 stops at a two-mile route would be very unlikely. Even the very old streetcar systems have stops at an average distance no less than 250m and in modern setups you'd put them at a distance of about 400m / quarter mile. I didn't find the original info in the given reference but the track map clearly shows it be really 8 stops, so the 16 is probably just "platforms". Also the spokeswoman said in a video that the track is 2.2 mile long. Those would be much more rational numbers indeed.Guidod (talk)09:35, 23 February 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I think the person counted each time the streetcar visited a station on a round trip. I count 10 stations, as seenhere. --Elisfkc (talk)20:12, 10 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi all - I'm not from Kansas City, so I wonder if you can help me. Some more photos and a nice route diagram would really help this article out, it's a bit bare right now!Turini2 (talk)16:59, 29 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

As per a wide variety of transportation articles, it's notWikipedia:CRYSTAL or speculation to include published proposals (such as the east-west line). (Clearly insertions by"Crayonistas" should be banished post haste!)

I've also reinserted useful information such as the length and cost of the extensions - clearly of interest to a layperson. I have significantly summarised the previous wording (completely understand the NOTNEWS point!), with headings as appropriate.Turini2 (talk)17:12, 27 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
