Latest SEEN and HEARD on #TRIMET (aka #Trimess)

"Our buses just DISAPPEAR"
TrimetScanner Tweets are HERE!
 

Alright you really need to get the southbound Killingsworth MAX stop's machine up and running. This is twice in a row. 

Uni Watch: Trimet edition. Gilbert Arenas Wizards jersey.  

Trimet is making buying a car more appealing every day. 

Every day, either buses don’t show up and ones that do are 10+ minutes late. What gives,

Remember the retard who was spit on on TriMet? Did you see how slowly those officers strolled after the culprit? What if tard was in a suit? 

Lots of people on the bus this AM -- beginning to think when weather is colder & grayer more people ride bus. Just a theory.  

power loss earlier this AM causing delays to Red and blue blue MAX trains  

So many brand spankin' new Portland school buses in a city where "yellow buses" just don't exist and 22 year old buses are dandy OK 

sounds like bus dispatch needs to be fired if they can't handle this, ITS THEIR JOB!! 

9408 now SRO thanks to service cuts, non-existant buses, poor service.  

Look its a supervisor at the unsafe bus stop Main & Tigard Sts. 

Oh, wow. Just encountered a helpful and sympathetic TriMet worker when the ticket machine wasn't working. Unreal. 


When transit tracker said 2 minutes I expected a bus not a school bus with Montana license plates 

78 why are you 15 min late?! IM GONNA BE LATE.  

First non-optimal TriMet experience of trip. The bus I was already early for decided to wait somewhere for 20m before heading my way. 

I really hate Trimet but I use it anyways


Finally on our way home. #16 scheduled to arrive 5:27 arrived at 6:07. Hungry and tired people. 

I wish had electronic passes that integrated with iOS PassBook. It might even save money vs. printing and mailing... 

RT I wish could fix the problems at 5th & Broadway, rather than meaningle...  

dont think the 19 bus did not show up at stop 2110 between 5:25 and 5:45 there were two scheduled stops any idea? 

Any chance your next technology advance could be a way of informing riders why their bus seems to have disappeared (again). #16 gone 

Sitting next to an adorable little girl who is mesmerized by the bus. So cute!  

2 dozen and me/waiting here for a late bus/My fucking commute. #16 where r u? 

what happened to the 70? No buses showing up NB @ Lloyd Center. 

More rider confusion over 94 routing through Tigard.... 

what about a resolution to examine effects of bus service cuts, and Metro's failures to fund bus improvements?? 

The nice thing about a cloudy, sub-70 degree day in Portland? 1400 series buses are 5% more tolerable to ride in. 

Busy transit mall  

If a bus is packed and you sit on the outside to block others from sitting, you're a jerk and deserve some karmic retribution.  

If you like to text on the bus & have a seriously obnoxious message tone, know that that justifies you getting a beat down.  

WHY DOES THE 20 SUCK SO MUCH. YES I DID CONTACT CUSTOMER SERVICE BUT THE 20 STILL SUCKS. 

To the couple in front of me on Max - get a room! No canoodling on the train.  

Getting reeeeal sick of your shit, Trimet

yes ticket machines were out of service. 

The policy requiring leaving the MAX to buy a ticket & wait for the next MAX is not reasonable when I have work & school to get to. 

Of course my first experience with Trimet would be getting ordered to leave due to a suspicious package being on the bus... 

Stupid ticket machines. Most confusing things ever, when you can find one that works. 

STOP LYING TO ME. @ TriMet Skidmore Fountain MAX Station  

ticket machine 005 won't give out change 

I really don't like the sounds the brakes on this bus are making, like at fucking all.  

The platform and stairs at 82nd Ave. MAX stop could really use pressure washing. Gross. 

during the zombie apocalypse i will use the vending machines for sure!
