I stand by my statement that I find it absurd that they post the track numbers at Penn Station in the manner in which they do it. I still find it absurd that they make all these people hover over stairways staring at screens until the very last minute when they finally post a track number and then the mad dash down the stairs and along the platform.Mostly it's just the occasional riders who have to wait like that. As most rush hour trains use the same tracks each day, the regulars start forming their cows-at-the-slaughterhouse-chute half-moons ten or even fifteen minutes prior to departure. What's really amusing is the frantic, fall-of-Saigon rush that happens when there's a track change announcement at the last minute. My LIRR/NYCT blog |
