The DC Metro is an abomination. I regularly spend about 40 minutes waiting for my girlfriend at the end of one of the lines as she gets on a trip that should take 20. Everything from &quot;Single tracking on line between EVERYWHERE due to construction&quot; to train inexplicably stopping on tracks for 10 minutes, to trains simply deciding not to run in that direction with absolutely no warning, no explanation why, and no ETL on the next train.<p>It boggles the mind to think how any work gets done in DC when the public transit system is so terrible.<p>Oh, wait...
