Some progress to report in uptown:
At Erb and Caroline staking for the outer curb is in place on the south west corner. Also, pieces of track were being moved around closer to their final resting spots.
At King and Allen the short stretch on the southbound track between the Allen curve and the Allen station is now poured.
Track is now welded and mostly booted, but still on wooden blocks, all the way to William (previously ended at George).
Also, a lot of the advertising on the orange construction fence was coming down; not sure if that is a precursor to the fence moving or coming down - would seem early for that.

Everyone move to the back of the bus and we all get home faster.
