And every computer in the flow for hours behind!

I was on a commuter train and a train or two in front of us was involved in an accident.

We sat forever!
Many called for a cab to pick them up on a nearby surface street, The west side of Chicongo! Not a nice area!!!

It was in the winter, much safer than summer!

I rode NJT/ConRail/Amtrak for years in the 70s/80s, from Princeton to north into NYC, and if anything stopped, the back-ups and delays were massive until they could get re-routing done. We’d usually just catch a southbound train and go home for the day.
