^ I don't see many intermediate urban nodes between the airport and Tacoma. The Sounder path in fact looks the most populated. I would focus on increasing speeds and service levels there, and probably adding a transfer station to the airport link at S Boeing Access Road rather than new heavy rail...
The north side Sounder needs some in-city infill stations (though there may not be enough capacity for frequent service, unfortunately). Stations at Belltown, Uptown, Magnolia Bridge, Dravus, 28th, Seaview ("Ballard"), 61st, Golden Gardens and Richmond Beach would definitely make the Sounder much more useful, with say, at least half-hourly frequency.
