Ive been on 2 trains which openned after an overrun. Once, on QB I was on a train which overran a local station 3/4ths of a car into the tunnel. wasnt really a problem-- the tunnel is wide there, and its much like a normal platform, just darker. people got off the train as usual, and just walked to the rest of the platform. (Was an R68!)The other incident OTOH happenned at West Farms Square by 1 and a half doors. I looked over, looked down, and walked backwards, not wishing to fall off the structure. (Was an R110A!) |

"Stabbing in the back." what a right-wing turn of phrase. By "geese behind" I was referring to those poor unfortunate souls who lost four minutes thirty five seconds on their commute when they got off on the downtown plat @ Junc.

Ratting out and critiquing people I'm going to be around for 20-25 yrs, let alone stabbing in the back is not my game. Provided they don't compromise safety. |

Heh depends on where the cord was pulled AND if its reset properly...I heard a story that a rookie C/R pulled the cord, beacuse some dumb kids started to "ride" on the side of the train didnt tell the T/O and then was trying to "even it out" in her cab while he was walking around the train... Needless to say the 1 Line was really really jacked up since it happened leaving 191 Street.. That C/R got a nice "talking to" from the Line Supt.. |

I agree with the assertion that this was no federal offense and I wouldn't have reported it. But, it WAS a boneheaded mistake by the C/R and it COULD have inconvenienced many people. It's simply not a defensible act. The riding public has a right to be upset over it. |
