Today I learned that if GO Transit cancels a morning train, it takes 3 trains to make up for it - so says anonymous person

I got schooled quite rudely in a phone call someone dialed from a number that when I called it back, after the person hung up on me, connected me to an automated message from a Bell payphone.

The woman was irate about a tweet I posted this morning. I tweeted: "728 from Oshawa also an all stops train. Why are 2 express trains compromised because of 1 train issue?"

This was not a stupid or rude, or an ignorant question, but according to the person on the line, I was stupid to ask it.

Person: One train holds, what? Like, 1200 passengers. If one train has already 600 passengers on it and it's going to be full by Union, how are 1200 passengers to get on it... so it will take three trains to be all ready to pick up all the people who can't take one train. Don't be so ignorant. You present yourself as this expert when you're stupid. Get your facts straight first before you run your mouth spreading false information. *click

Well, let's see random person, if GO would be more transparent about their logistics, none of us would ask any questions. Would we?

Thanks for the phone call. And from a payphone no less...
