Also from the same thread:

For people who aren't intimately knowledgeable about the Seattle rail system, the Mt Baker station is an elevated platform. Meaning she had to have driven the WRONG WAY on a railroad about 40 feet up in the air for SEVERAL MILES to end up here.

Edit: it looks like it was not "several miles" but less then one mile; a notable feat anyway:

    10 years ago, I had a friend unironically describe to me how self driving cars would solve traffic jams by communicating and coordinating with each other to drive at high speed, in a line, close to each other, with just inches between each car....

    "bro... you just invented a really shitty, inefficient train..."
