Now NJ Transit, not to mention JCP&L et al seem not to have understood this fact of nature. Thus from today:
M&E Line train service has resumed Summit and Dover and subject to 90 minute delays in both directions following a downed tree in the overhead wires near Summit...
Namely we have another NJ Transit failure!
From the NY Times today we have:
New Jersey’s new governor, Philip D.
Murphy, a Democrat, has promised the state’s commuters that train
service would improve after years of decline. What he did not warn them
was that it would get so much worse before it got better. Seven
months after Mr. Murphy took office, many regular riders of New Jersey
Transit, the state-run network of trains and buses, have become
increasingly irate over a rash of train cancellations this summer that
has made the nation’s second busiest commuter rail system even less
reliable. “It’s really just a
crapshoot on whether the train’s going to run on time,” said ....., who has been riding New Jersey Transit from Princeton Junction
to Pennsylvania Station in Manhattan for more than two years. “The past
few months has really just been awful.”
Frankly what would one expect from a person from Goldman Sachs who most likely had never been on NJ Transit! Just a guess mind you. The Governor seems to know how to spend our money on such things as promoting the Press that supports him but not in getting the people whose taxes support him to work!
Infrastructure of the type as electricity, water, sewer, transport, roads and the like was a major focus on the Socialists a century ago. They felt they were better run by the Government. Look how that has worked out. Now the Socialists want Healthcare and Education, and you should wonder how that will work out.
