@kk:

I understand that my main point is shortcuts should be the last thing done when there is already a perfectly functioning route. They should be done only when the rest of a system is complete.

So you think it would have been better not to build anything at all than to build the Yellow Line during that period? Again, the Green Line was partially built, but no construction was allowed on it for several years. See the Wikipedia link MLD posted for details. (That link actually won't work unless you add a right parenthesis to the end. There must be something wrong with the way GGW's comment system parses URLs.)

Also, if you're saying that a significantly shorter trip to National Airport (not to mention Pentagon and other Arlington and Alexandria destinations) isn't worth anything ("To tell the truth beyond the to southern stations served only be the Yellow line there is no point to it"), I can't take you seriously.
