The other day there was a newborn in stroller who must have been miserable - not to mention the bus was overcrowded since it was about 30 minutes before they bring in rush hour frequency, making the environment difficult for everyone. <br /><br />Today I didn't notice it as much though. Not sure if it was because they adjusted the temperature, it was more seasonal outside, or if I just got used to it. If it is warm again, I'll send them an email myself.Bennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6441168213084499367.post-74316224864815409492012-03-20T11:05:57.220-04:002012-03-20T11:05:57.220-04:00Ohhhhh, thanks for the laugh!!!

Similar, said the CSA, to how buildings have a schedule. <br /><br />Again, this the first time the system has had to deal with summer temperatures in what is essentially winter. There's no mandate in place because no one ever thought it would get this hot.<br /><br />Bring water. Dress in layers. Think cool thoughts.C.J.

I just hope you got his name, because if nothing happens, you have someone you can talk to again.<br /><br />I am on all different trains going home at night - mostly the 5:10 but with a bunch of 5:20s, 5.53s and for fun, 6:18s for the last week and for many more to come. <br /><br />I will say that on all of them, first thing I do is strip off my coat or sweater because it is pretty much set to "Hell". Doesn't matter which coach. But with a lot more people packed onto the end coaches, the heat is even worse.<br /><br />With this warmth, I don't want to start wearing layers, just so I can strip down and still be decent on the trip home.Squigglesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6441168213084499367.post-56312206034443279842012-03-19T15:34:26.876-04:002012-03-19T15:34:26.876-04:00I too am on the 5:10 and so welcome the comfortabl...I too am on the 5:10 and so welcome the comfortable temperatures, and say THANK YOU for making that call, and his day! :) (I took an earlier train on Friday and thought the heat was going to kill me - was down to a tank top and still had sweat pouring down my back - that does not make me feel pretty at all!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6441168213084499367.post-6818481836098498242012-03-19T15:17:16.078-04:002012-03-19T15:17:16.078-04:00OMG thanks.
