Rail supervisor prevents suicide
Rail operator Mike Beiser was crossing the Steel Bridge at about 9:30
this morning when he spotted a woman standing on the railing on the
west end of the bridge. He immediately called into TriMet’s Operations
Control Center. Rail Supervisor Bob Shaffer was three blocks away and
responded. He said the woman had gone over the railing and he could tell
she was intent on jumping. He immediately contacted the control center
and asked for police.
Supervisor Shaffer approached the woman and attempted to talk her into coming back over the railing, but she said she wanted to jump. When she moved closer to the edge, Supervisor Shaffer grabbed onto her wrist and she jumped. He said his adrenaline kicked in and he was able to hold onto her. A passerby helped Supervisor Shaffer keep the woman from falling until police and fire crews arrived and pulled her to safety.

Transit being cut all across America
Yet look at the money that is available for everything else related to transit:
