Fix the damn T. I don't know what engineers the T hires, but let's look for ones with GPAs higher than 2 in the future. We've had trains since the 1800s in this city, so maybe the engineers should study how the engineering was originally done. Now they have fancy software and tons of tech to help and they still can't get it done.

I'm not an engineer, but I don't think third rails and wheels on tracks are particularly confusing things. Electricity and mechanics, that's what engineers take in their first year. The T always finds PR chumps to explain away slow zones, but if someone can run faster than the train, there is clearly a major issue.

What am I missing? Are the T engineers still using slide rules?
