Meanwhile, at the Ajax GO Station

Now, I am not too certain if it is because today was the first commuter platform restriction day or something else was going on, BUT (!!!) there was a transit security officer at the top of the escalator making certain no one stood there.

It was an interesting experience being able to exit the door on the same side I rode the escalator up on. GoTransitBitch should be happy if this becomes a permanent thing. Or permanent enough that people change their behaviour.

As well, for those that get on the train at Rouge Hill, there is no sense bitching about the Ajax people taking up the seats in "your cars". Nothing we can do about it. Why don't you move further down the platform? Those cars will be mostly empty.

  1. I didn't realize GO had reserved seating!

    I will admit to feeling badly for those who get on at Bramalea (I get on at Brampton) on the Georgetown/Kitchener line. It's pretty much full by that stop.

    I'm digressing...

  2. Security officer was there again today. He is here because of the Platform restrictions They announced twice to please spread out down the platform and not to block the stairways or exits. We shall see what nightmare develops when he's not there.

  3. Heard that this morning as well. Tuned it out, probably like most people.

    The thing is: it doesn't matter how much we spread out, it will still be crowded!
