Jun. 28th, 2007 08:52 pmAs I'm arriving at the train station this morning:
"Attention, R5 passengers, the next train to, Center City Philadelphia, is running approximately, eight minutes, behind schedule."
Repeat three-and-a-half times.
Two minutes go by.
"Attention, please disregard the previous announcement."
The train is, at this point, about four minutes late.
A few minutes later, I can see the train lights at Haverford.
"Attention, R5 passengers, the next train to, Center City Philadelphia, is running approximately, eight minutes, behind schedule."
The train leaves Haverford.
"Attention, please disregard the previous announcement. All SEPTA trains are running on or close to schedule"
The train pulls into the station. Eight minutes late.
