"Just like jury duty".Come on down to Baltimore town, where the Circuit Court calls 900+ for Jury Duty every day in the hope 450 souls will show up and do their civic duty. Required Rail content: A funny thing has been happening on the Light Rail here. The MTA built a 3 track station at Texas Station, but it's never been opened as a passenger station due to a power (for lights and TVMs) and parking problem that has never been solved. It is used to turn back Timonium-BWI trains (they go OOS at Timonium, change ends, go back to Timonium and go in service. The funny thing that has been happening only happens with two car trains and several times in the last few months, when the operator changes ends at Texas Station and opens the second car (which becomes the lead car when the train heads south), the operator discovers 3 or 4 people sitting in the car, looking somewhat surprised. Apparently those people deserve the Not Paying Attention Award, as it's always announced at Timonium "This is the last stop." The operators always take them back to Timonium and let the off. |
