Yeah, what Westporter says.
Look, guys, there are real issues here, and they're not all unrelated. Doesn't matter what Senator Schumer says or does, or Blumenthal, or the former head of the commuters' council. These incidents all show an alarmingly casual attitude on management's part about keeping things in proper working order. Really, nothing to back-up critical system software? Ayfkm?
No, I am not blaming the unions. I am well-aware that when I was stuck on the train Wednesday and last night, so were the conductors and the engineers. I am certain they don't like being stuck anymore than the passengers do. And the guys they sent out in the middle of the night in 5 degree weather to unfreeze the switches? No, again, I am not blaming them. No one here is.
But pretending that there are no issues and that passengers are a bunch of whining babies is not going to make things better. Subpoenas sent to 347 Madison might. Just saying.
