Re: ''You Can't Sit Down'': CTA

Posted by Forest Glen on Thu Jul 17 20:16:58 2008, in response to Re: ''You Can't Sit Down'': CTA, posted by trainsarefun on Thu Jul 17 15:07:55 2008.

The one that wasn't around when NYCT's predecessors were already serving people for decades?

Irrelevant

The one that regularly doesn't run full-length trains?

The Orange line runs 8 car trains. The Red Line runs every 2-3 minutes during rush hour.

The one that doesn't have an unlimited ride fare option?

Incorrect. There is an all day pass.

The one that doesn't operate 24/7?

Because it isn't necessary. Most of the ridership is 9 to 5 workers who work in DC and live in Montgomery County or Virginia. On Fridays and Saturdays it runs until 3 AM.

WMATA has good points and bad points just like every other system

I never said the WMATA was flawless. It isn't. I'm merely saying that the Metro is better than any other system in the country and that BART is a close second.
