like wet leaves on a steel rail

While traveling by train in England, we had heard this excuse used to explain why the trains were running late. Of course, in our ignorance, we couldn't understand why a few leaves could stop a train. Thanks for clearing this up for us!

I’m a software contractor on a PTC project for a major railroad right now,

As a fellow railroad engineering contractor in the same business as you, thank you very much for a sane post on the subject.

Liberals are good at blaming inanimate objects and not the irresponsible person

A perusal of PATH’s budget

might be "interesting," but the train that crashed was part of NJ Transit.
