Blu-ize!!!!!!

Wanna complain about the new trains together???

It still boggles my mind that they can spend millions of dollars designing new trains and not realize that you can't fit a dam thing in the overhead 'luggage' racks!!!!!!

Plus they STILL smell funny, even after about 4 years!!!

AND, the windows suk! They used to be the perfect height for leaning your head on while you slept. The new ones are way too low, and yet still too high to put your elbow on the sill in order to rest your head in your hand!

Ahhh, I feel better now!

Don't get me started. I hate the LIRR.

Today I was a Susan sandwich between two broad shouldered men that I guess had giant balls because they couldn't close their legs.

They kept shoving me. Finally I got up and stood.

The trains are so tight and I'm not a very big person. Could lose 20, but not overly large.

I wish they would have designed trains that acutally fit Americans. They were made in Japan I think. For real.

Yes, we are bigger than other cultures.

Some of these new trains are on metro north -- and this is my biggest gripe!

The old trains break down and the new trains suk. Ding Ding......this station is Jamaica.....the next station is...Penn Station...

Also when you are arriving in Penn Station-this makes no sense whatsoever...

Please be considerate of your neighbors with your cell phones and keep your feet off the seats. Are we 1st graders? The script needs changing and has no meaning. Nobody gives a rats azz about either.

My favorite is the nextel push to talk people talking about nothing but their freakin plans for the evening. Nobody cares!!!

I'm not a fan of the new trains either. I stand, b/c I feel so squished, but the giant bathrooms take up too much of the standing space ( ok, I know they are supposed to be handicapped accesible. . . )

---

Oh you mean the bathrooms that are bigger than mine in my house?

Yeah, I know it's handicapped accessible and all, but then the design of the trains are wrong. The eliminated 88 seats on every train.

WORD! And did I mention the USELESS overhead luggage racks???

I'm sorry to go on about it, but I just can't believe someone hung that thing up and went 'That looks about right - nice and roomy!'

And Blu-ize, I did hear that they were made/designed in Japan.

Oh yes, I had the luggage rack experience last night. If you can't put the luggage on the rack it will be sitting in the aisle or on top of someone's feet.

I had my gym bag last night and it wouldn't fit. It's a gym bag folks. Ok, let's go to JFK from the LIRR into Jamaica...ok, I have my luggage..maybe I'll sit on my suitcase on the train..
