This is what happens when curious statistics taken in isolation substitute for a holistic study of the system. This nonsense about one tower favoring 'its' trains, etc., is just sheer nonsense - the job of the railroad is to move people, not be in comparison over whose percentages and 'grades' are less worse than the others.I see a lot of good in having one person in charge of a particular station or station complex, in charge of cleaning and keeping things in good order. In terms of lines, though, the system is a network, and I don't think that it can effectively be managed taking a route-by-route perspective. As a rider, here's what I'm concerned with: do the trains run frequently and on-time and with reliability? Further on from that, how's the climate control, cleanliness, etc? |
