Washington Metro's economy drive
I recently made what should have been a short ride on Washington's metro, involving one change of train.
The short ride became a long one, because of the 24 minutes I spent waiting for trains - 14 minutes for a Blue Line train at Pentagon Centre and ten minutes for the Orange Line at Rosslyn.
Twelve minute intervals between trains, introduced as an economy measure, are clearly not unusual: allow plenty of time if you are travelling on WMATA!
I also really noticed how dark the stations are - lighting too has been cut back.
