In a very last minute decision to dash up to Cambridge to meet Jason for dinner and drinks, I find my self on a commuter train. Here I am thinking the tube is bad! You probably can’t see in this photo but people are sitting in the aisles while others stand over them. I chatted with one woman beside me who tells me that most people don’t even buy tickets because as a regular commuter you know it’s always this bad, and there is no way a ticket collector could ever make it down the aisle to spot check tickets. Nice. So due to the crowds this service desperately needs more trains on it, but due to the crowds people aren’t paying the money to fund more trains.
At least dinner with Jason’s coworkers was absolutely delicious. Sent from my BlackBerry wireless device
Go is like that sometimes.
However, the ticket checkers will make it around. They are VERY good at their job. It doesn’t matter how busy the train, if they are checking, the tickets get checked.
