(1) Carol Glover's 2015 death didn't do it. The past 15 months of news about failures during rail emergencies didn't do it. @MetrorailSafety's sharp criticism & many orders didn't do it. Is there anything that will change the culture at @wmata? (more) 
(2) My story today on a passenger being the first to call DC 911 about a stranded train & the need for an ambulance, along with the usual poor communications between & by @wmata's ROCC & @OUC_DC is sadly just business as usual. (more) bit.ly/3gkUiHM
(3) It's the rule & not the exception that there'll be serious safety lapses anytime @wmata handles a rail emergency, whether big or small. And it's the same mistakes made over & over again. Is anyone surprised about the news this week? (more)
(4) One thing is clear -- @wmata is terrible at communicating. During emergencies it doesn't get the information to the right people, whether they are inside Metro or outside. (more)
(5) @wmata also doesn't communicate well about emergencies. I've been requesting info -- basic questions -- about 4 incidents since December 13. Not one question has been answered. Zero information. Metro appears to be paying its communications staff not to communicate. (more)
(6) And finally, it appears @wmata's GM doesn't communicate well with the agency's employees. Paul Wiedefeld's messages & orders about critical safety issues just aren't getting through or no one is listening.
