r/caltrain

saw a staff member checking fares in the first car and shouting at a lady who just made it on the train and didn’t get to tap. he made her get off and tap and then shouted at her to stay off the train and wait for the next one. she had a monthly pass. felt so bad for her as she was profusely apologizing and looked terrified. do monthly pass holders need to tap every time? I feel like the messaging and enforcement are both unclear.

As if just before 4pm, a Level 1 heat restriction has been issued on all tracks from Belmont to South San Jose. That means all trains will not exceed 60 MPH in this segment. Minor Delays maybe expected. All of this is from the radio (for Caltrain); that's where I got the info from hearing about it there.
