I have yet to have seen eithe...What a damn crock!!! I have yet to have seen either a customer or a crew member not notice an unattended bag or package on a train or in the racks and not say anything about it. Just yesterday evening I was stopped by a man in GCT reporting an unattended bag being left on the stairway leading from the Main Concourse to the Lower Level, and not only did I myself go take a look, but by the time I got there, a National Guard soldier and an MTA Police officer were already inspecting the bag (which as usual turns out to be nothing!!!)<BR/><BR/>Futhermore, and this is something that will forever baffle me and at the same time piss me off about American press and media....how in hell do you mean to keep people safe by exposing a security issue in such a flourish and spectacle that now any idiot dangerous enough and with enough of a cause, or thinking he has a cause, can now easily plan and probably even carry out the deaths of many innocent people on a packed train (and I know that 8:12 train, having worked it as a conductor and a trainman, it is pretty damn busy!!)?? <BR/><BR/>We should really, in the event something happens, in our most "animate, expressive" way possible, thank the media for telling these bastards how they can get their objectives completed, and just how easy it is for them to do so. Bunch of damn idiots!! They (the CT media)should have been kicked off the train!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22458455.post-91367651385367189342007-02-24T13:55:00.000-05:002007-02-24T13:55:00.000-05:00Wow, I didn't know that was a Metro-North train! I...Wow, I didn't know that was a Metro-North train! It's too bad that you weren't on the train when they shot the video. I can see it now......<BR/><BR/>"And here we are, with famous Metro-North conductor, Bob McDonough! We ask you sir, have you ever left anything on the train?"<BR/><BR/>HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA!!!!!!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22458455.post-74013745622421519212007-02-24T13:42:00.000-05:002007-02-24T13:42:00.000-05:00Well said Bob.jkWell said Bob.<BR/>jkAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
