Not so fast – not everyone is impressed by the Detroit QLINE’s not so fast pace.

TheQLINE opened to the public last Fridayand had some setbacks over the weekend such as long wait-times, stoppage while a car was towed from the tracks and mechanical problems.

The website, www.NoSoPureMichigan.com captured some of the frustrations in a spoof video.

“The train’s downtown commute now rivals the walking pace of a 62-year-old woman,” the video states.

The QLINE spans a three-mile stretch of Woodward Ave. and cost about $140 million to build.
