When it rains, it pours

Posted on January 17th, 2008 by The SUBWAYblogger in Deaths, Transit Failures

Has there been an insane amount of transit failures this week, or is it me?

There was Tuesday’s insanity, with what was first reported as a train derailment.  Turns out to have been a fairly massive mechanical failure.

Then, there was today’s crap on the 1, 2, and 3 line.  Still don’t know what the hell that was all about.  What I do know is that I am $20 lighter today thanks to the gypsy cab I had to take.  (Of course, everyone was looking for a cab.)

Oh and let’s not forget the suicide jumper we had in the middle of the day today, that was special.

It’s a roll of the dice every morning.

    Some things doesn’t change over the years! People living in Uptown Manhattan always had to rely on gypsy cabs when, no matter what’s the reason, there was a failure on the subways!

    I’m sorry for you!
