I work 3 blocks away from the stop that takes me homeward, and I (foolishly) look at the Tri-Met's "transit tracker" website before I leave every day. The site will say 15 minutes before the next bus, 28 minutes later it arrives. It works, but it's annoying.<BR/><BR/>Since it's late, it's packed. If only they ran every 10 minutes rather than every 25... and of course, it'd help if they arrived on time.ryanvdzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00868388773441543513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10672805.post-1162312424600296832006-10-31T08:33:00.000-08:002006-10-31T08:33:00.000-08:00I was stationed in Germany '93-'96 and you could j...I was stationed in Germany '93-'96 and you could just about set your watch to the trains. *sigh*MikeyPDXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02664912904753873654noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10672805.post-1162272631902099612006-10-30T21:30:00.000-08:002006-10-30T21:30:00.000-08:00When I was on vatation in Tokyo, the trains seemed...When I was on vatation in Tokyo, the trains seemed to run on time to the second. I guess folks would have their connection times figured out with 30 second layovers. I thought it was pretty slick.<BR/><BR/>I guess that really doesnt help you, though.brandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11507192624540239249noreply@blogger.com
