At least THREE MORE MONTHS with no 7000s

wmata.com/about/news/700… Something is very very wrong with those cars.

Remember that Metro has known about this problem since 2017 yet continued to put them in service, putting riders at risk.

Defund @NoVaTransit They don't give a sh*t about riders

The only time I want to hear Metro brag about ridership is when they eclipse their peak ridership, which happened THIRTEEN YEARS AGO. They're getting MUCH MORE money than they did in 2008, yet the ridership was 20% down before the pandemic hit.

You're getting ripped off.

Metro loves to pat itself on the back, but it’s still offering less service than it did in 2008, despite *massive* taxpayer “investment.”

Ridership peaked in 2008. It’s not only Metro that pats Metro on the back. It’s an army of shills and “journalists,” too.

FU Twitter Image Here’s the context. Hardly “harmful.”

Remember in 2010 when twitter was fun and not a buzzkill? Image

Metro should pledge to be 100% nuclear powered. To be clear, I don't mean the individual trains should be nuclear powered. I mean from electricity produced by nuclear energy. NO ONE from Metro should be allowed within 5 miles of a nuclear power plant.

When you realize Metro is a giant grift, it all makes sense.

The actual transit part is a pesky annoyance reluctantly provided as a cover story. If you don’t believe me on the reluctant part, just think how much service has been cut over the last decade. Think of how metro treated the transit dependent and essential workers during the pandemic. Think about them paying Lyft for a late night service substitute

So soon? The 7000s must be worse than we know. Subway cars should have decades-long lifespans. Metro renewed its fleet a couple years ago.

they don't require masks.

they say they do, but they don't.

the whole thing is absurd. and since metro won't enforce their BS "requirement," exactly who did they think would?

the people that run metro are utter morons

For the people who don't really need it, Metro is a great transit system.

For those who desperately need it, it's a nightmare. by people who don't really need it, i mean 9-5 office workers who've been teleworking since march. the same people who, when metro is melting down, can afford a surge price uber. they love the theory of metro.

Metro still pushing their BS “required” line in their surveys.

No enforcement, no denial of service.

It’s interesting to see the growing ripple effect of people who are realizing just how corrupt, broken and uncaring Metro is. #wmata Metro’s not some poor little helpless orphan. It’s like a greedy, alcoholic & abusive spouse who blames you for all its problems. And every time it promises to do better, it lets you down and then threatens you and asks for money.

Milan’s transit system saying “all staff on the pitch,” as they reopen from one of the biggest outbreaks in the world.

Look at Metro’s “GM” in comparison.

So embarrassing and screwed up. #wmata Milan’s post virus service atm.it/en/ViaggiaConN…

I'm reading articles about "transit after the virus." They all seem to say transit will need more money.

I think that's probably true.

Where's it going to come from though? Every level of government is/going to be broke. One likely case: Agencies will raid capital funds to cover the operating budgets.

Metro is a poster child for where that ends up.
