Sometimes it not the commuters who crack me up but the people I put my life in the hands of... Day after day after day after day... So today I, like a creature of habit look at the track listing just to make sure I'm heading for the right train. So as always my train is listed on track three. Get down to track three... No train. Ok no biggie... Then the metro north god announces the inevitable track change. :D track five. So now the commuters on track five don't know where their train is... Voice of metro north god announces... TRACK CHANGE track five you are now on track three. Train comes in.... And its a big one.... Eight cars.... ONE door out of fifty plus doors opens to let passengers off. After all of the one hundred plus passengers exit through the one open door.... ALL the doors open to let people on board. Ha. So we board and start to roll... As we pick up speed and FLY past
the next stop... People start to panic... Just as Mr. Joe mighty passenger man gets up to see to the bottom of this... The train conductor SLAMS on the breaks and.... Might joe takes flight.... Right through one car alllllllllllll the way into the next car. Ouch! He was ok, his fold up scooter broke the fall..... No he didn't start rolling down the aisle....
So I start to laugh because this is typical and then we start rolling backwards.... Which is always a little unnerving when done so quickly... Did they check to see f there was another train hauling booty on the same track? Eh no biggie....its not like there are train collisions or anything to worry about.
Happy travels folks. Big foot news paper eye poker elbows man just sat on me with a hot cup of coffee. Fun times. ;)
