I hate to tell you guys that in spite of all the troubles that we have had these last few weeks - we still have massively better rail service than other areas of the country.  SEPTA - the public rail system in Philadelphia - does not even bother to include times of arrival at many suburban stations in its schedules - taking the attitude it gets there when it gets there.

New Jersey Transit has achieved a state of occupancy levels on many of its trains where conductors are forced to eject riders every day from certain trains because of severe over crowding.

I&#039;ll take a bad couple of weeks over a bad system
