Seattle Monorail Services operates the Seattle Center Monorail, a fast, direct connection between downtown Seattle's Westlake Center and Seattle Center, serving major attractions in the area. The service provides a direct and convenient transit option for both visitors and locals traveling between downtown and Seattle Center. The Monorail runs daily with trains departing roughly every 10 minutes, and the system carries more than two million passengers annually. Built for the 1962 Seattle World's Fair to link downtown amenities with the fairgrounds, the Monorail is owned by the City of Seattle and has been operated by Seattle Monorail Services, a locally owned family business, since 1994. Based in Seattle, Washington, Seattle Monorail Services operates within the rail transportation sector as a small, locally based operator of a historic urban transit asset. In mid-2021, BlackStar Diversified Enterprises signed a contract to supply low-voltage switchboards for the Seattle Monorail, reflecting ongoing vendor partnerships to support the system.
