Earlier this spring, Bob Martinsen was honored as Metro Transit’s “Vehicle Maintenance Employee of the Year.”
Bob has been a valued employee in Vehicle Maintenance since 1979. During his 31-year career with Metro, Bob has repaired monorail cars, buses, streetcars, electric trolleys.
Currently, Bob works on the mobile repair truck stationed at Atlantic Base in downtown Seattle.
Bus won’t start? Bob to the rescue. Loose mirror? Bob to the rescue. Tangled up trolley ropes? Bob to the rescue. Trouble in the tunnel? Bob to the rescue.
His Metro supervisors can’t say enough about Bob’s diligent consistency as an unsung hero behind the scenes. So, we’ll just echo that thought by offering a simple: “Thanks, Bob!”
