what is wrong with the metro [1]

Originally uploaded by DCMetbloger [2].

Could someone please explain to me why i should be waiting 7 minutes for a train at 7pm on a tuesday? Instead of watching lights flicker, shouldn’t i be well on my way to my destination? Wouldn’t more trains per hour _and_ more cars per train [3] speed things up?

Could metro then come something close to the amazing efficiency of the ancient moscow metropolitain [4] or the reliability of the creaky nyc subway? We can only hope.
