Horrible service on the Silver Line right now - Metro is becoming very unreliable
it’s taken like 20 minutes to go three stops from Eastern Market to leaving L’Enfant plaza because the train is stopping dead for 5-10 minutes in every station. I am visiting my elderly mother with my family, she depends on us to get here when we say we’re going to. I don’t know whether we need to get out and get an Uber at this point, whether we should chance it with stations or how late we’re going to be if we are.
the Metro USED to be extremely reliable - when you got on a train you pretty much knew when your trip would be done with a very high probability of being right to within five minutes at most. That reliability is what has been disappearing lately. Its a real problem - it’s like there is no respect for our time or schedules or not an understanding of the way in which we need to count on the metro
as far as I know metro has not even admitted they have a problem
