We like trains here at Error’d, and you all seem to like trains
too. That must be the main reason we get so many submissions about broken
information systems.
“Pass,” said
Jozsef
. I think that train might have crashed already.
An anonymous subscriber shared an epic tale some time ago. They explained thus.
“(I couldn’t capture in the photo, but the next station after Duivendrecht was showing the time of 09:24+1.)
We know Europe has pretty good trains, and even some high-speed
lines. But this was the first time I boarded a time-traveling train.
At first I was annoyed to be 47 minutes late. I thought I could easily walk
from Amsterdam Centraal to Muiderpoort in less than the 53 minutes that
this train would take. But I was relieved to know the trip to the further
stations was going to be quicker, and I would arrive there even before
arriving at the earlier stations.”
I think the explanation here is that this train is currently expected
to arrive at Muiderport around 10:01. But it’s still projected to
arrive at the following stop at 9:46, and more surprisingly at the
successive stops at 9:35 and 9:25.

“Points failure on the West Coast Main Line has disrupted the linear nature of time.”
and quite some time ago, he also sent us this snap, singing
“That train that’s bound for glory? It runs through here.”
An unrelated
David B. wonders
“When is the next train? We don’t know, it’s running incognito.”
And finally, courageous

got sideways underground.
“Copenhagen subway system may have fully automated trains,
but their informational screens need a little manual help every now and then.”
