Passenger Trains > "NJT Hell: Passengers Made to Wait 4 Hours to Get Home"Date: 04/18/18 12:09 "NJT Hell: Passengers Made to Wait 4 Hours to Get Home" Author: joemvcnj Date: 04/18/18 12:31 Re: "NJT Hell: Passengers Made to Wait 4 Hours to Get Home" Author: jst3751 WOW, quoted from the link:
DeLorenzo said a conductor the next morning told him that the crew on the original train were told not to complete the trip to High Bridge in order to save on overtime. "They wanted to wait for the actual scheduled train so they didn't have to pay any conductors overtime even though that was our train that should have gone to High Bridge," DeLorenzo said. Management incompetence. Date: 04/18/18 12:36 Re: "NJT Hell: Passengers Made to Wait 4 Hours to Get Home" Author: joemvcnj There is no shelter waiting on that westbound platform either. If you head into the depot across the tracks, you risk getting trapped by downed crossing gates awaiting the next westbound train (that is headed beyond the yard) to High Bridge.

Nobody is excusing the terrible service. On a less frequent basis, it has happened forever. Nobody cares. Election is over, there are spoils to be distributed, like senior NJT jobs Posted from Android |
