Here we go again. Another day, another problem with New Jersey Transit. I boarded my train to return home from work today and upon arriving at our first stop, the main power source in the train died and everything went dark. It’s like a swamp in here right now as there is no circulation and I’m not seated near any of the doors they have open.
This is just the latest in an unending series of unfortunate events for this company. I wish they had any kind of competition, so that they would actually have to make trains that didn’t break down everyday. Luckily for them, tens of thousands of commuters rely on them for transportation into New York City during the work week. This company is strong-arming its commuters worse than the US government is our civil liberties.
So we finally got power back about 10 minutes ago and just arrived at the next stop, and *drumroll* the power died again! At this rate I won’t get to my stop for 3 hours, should be an interesting rest of the way home…
