It’s not just the Metro Rail Transit (MRT) trains that get bogged down by one glitch or another.
“On Thursday morning, May 15, an overloaded Philippine National Railways (PNR) train got stuck along the tracks early Thursday and caused heavy traffic congestion in Makati City during the morning rush hour,” reports Kris Bayos in Manila Bulletin.
According to PNR general manager, Engineer Joseph Allan Dilay, the train was bound for Muntinlupa. It stopped before arriving at Buendia Station at about 8:08am due to overloading.
Dilay was quoted as saying, “It automatically shut down due to overloading. It only ran after some passengers were unloaded at about 8:28am.”
Our questions: So, you keep letting people ride on the train until it stops? How about not taking in more people when the train’s already full?
