Friday Question of the Day – What Should the Tagline be for the DC Streetcar?

DDOT writes:
We need your help to identify a tagline for the DC Streetcar. A tagline is a slogan or phrase that conveys the most important attribute or benefit. Our streetcar brand is getting an upgrade and you can be a part of creating this new image by sharing your input in this survey that takes 5 minutes or less to complete. We ask that you submit the survey no later than Friday, December 14, 2012.
I thought this could make for a fun Friday Question of the Day as well. I’m already laughing in anticipation: What tagline would you give for the DC Streetcar?

DC Streetcars: “Let’s hope the trains don’t arrive as late as the implementation.” Sorry, had to.
“Welcome white people!”
I think that line has been trademarked by an art gallery in Anacostia.
“H St. It’s no longer hard to get to.”
It’s like Metro but without the broken escalators
It’s like Metrobus without the ability to move around broken down cars
Or double parked cars running in to get Chinese food
DC Streetcars: “Things are about to get rail”
HA!
no more submissions ladies and gents, we’ve got a winner.
Monorail…, MONORAIL!!, MONORAIL!!!!!
Mono…
D’oh!
The public transit that never does arrive

If only DC could come up with something catchy like that.
Maybe: WHORE. Whites on H, Over-intoxicated and Really Enigmatic..?
I would change enigmatic to entitled!

“Ding ding! All aboard for inflated property values and probable muggings. Welcome to H Street, folks!”
Ha! funny and sadly true
“Our streetcar brand is getting an upgrade.” Huh?? The streetcar isn’t even on the street yet. Why do they need to upgrade the “brand” already?
On the other hand, I guess it’s better if they crowdsource a tagline rather than pay some consultant $20K to come up with something lame (e.g., “College Park: A Livable Community”).
Ride The Chooch
Just like Metro, there’s a chance we will kill you
