T stuff
Today the train home was unusually empty: there were six people forced to stand, and four or five empty seats. They were empty for various reasons, but two of them were empty because there were oversized people sitting next to them. So technically, only two people really needed to be standing, assuming that two of the standees were willing to be crushed up against a fat guy.
I did pick a random coach on the Needham Heights #619 - actually, it was a middle coach, in the same position on the train as the coach I normally get into in Franklin. It's the third one back from the engine. Anyway, I counted five two-person seats and ten three-person seats on the Needham train that were totally empty. That's forty, count 'em forty empty seats on one coach - and believe me, most of the other seats were NOT filled to capacity. Meanwhile, every coach on the Franklin train six minutes later had multiple people standing.
I'm thinking of starting up an open blog for Massachusetts commuter rail passengers. There doesn't seem to be anything like that right now, and there's a crying need for it. But I could use some advice. What would be the best service to use? I'm not going to be spending money on this. Blogger, maybe? Do they allow you to pick an URL?
Also, what might be a good, catchy, easy-to-remember name for a commuter rail complaint blog? I'd appreciate any suggestions!
