Amtrak prides itself on getting passengers where they’re going on time—even if that means leaving the passengers behind.
On Saturday, the Acela Express
2253 left Penn Station for Washington D.C. without riders. The 3 pm
train left approximately 85 people behind after the riders were
reportedly led to the wrong platform.
The New York Post
broke the story on Sunday and talked to passenger Damien Miano who was
not pleased with the inconvenience. “They literally sent us to the wrong
platform, and the conductor took off without any passengers,” Miano
said. “The right hand didn’t know what the left was doing. It was just
so bizarre.”
