Beating up on the TTC

Fancy this on Instapundit, an article on Streetcars in Toronto. Apparently, the National Post is running a series of horror stories collected from those who have ridden the red rocket. Rode one just the other day myself and found it as good as ever. Very helpful drivers too, who guided me into the subway at just the right stop. But not everyone has as pleasant a time as I did:

A geyser of unrest from streetcar riders erupted Tuesday after the National Post published a columnist’s account of his “horror show” streetcar commute. Readers from all over Ontario sent more than 50 emails and posted 500 comments online; our hashtag #streetcarnage trended Tuesday on Twitter. Travellers detailed their own streetcar nightmares and offered suggestions for improvement.

There must be a million rides a week and if the best you can get is 50 emails and 500 comments, it’s a beat up.
