I hate to be a total ass, but you spelled 'pessimistic' wrong.

For once, I agree with Tony. :) Investigating this and getting the line back up and running that quickly is pretty impressive.

or half-assed repairs. i think this is more likely. but yeah, kudos to the lemmings for not boarding the blue line today. i got a seat at the division stop heading into downtown circa 8ish. normally i'm fighting my way into a sardine can. maybe we should have fire/derailment/evacuations more often.

Under 14 hours. Impressive.

the red line was unusually light in passengers today. i thought that was sort of lame. what are the chances it's going to happen again? and it's the red line, not the blue. whatevs. i get a seat every day anyway up in the bryn mawr neighborhood.
