Yarra Trams SNAFU
On the way home on the tram, minding my own business when we come to a standstill between stops. Tram in front of us == teh borken. Ut oh!
To the drivers credit, he kept everyone updated on what was going on – when it became clear that the tram in front of us was not going anywhere in a hurry, he opened the doors to allow those who wanted off to walk up to the next station. Not really keen on the idea of sitting on a tram for an indeterminate period of time, I got off and used the awesome tramTRACKER app to find another way home.
This story is only mildly entertaining, however I was impressed at how quickly the problem was dealt with .. something you don’t expect from any public transit operator, anywhere, ever.
Fun times.
