Todays SEEN and HEARD on TRIMESS



Technology - Not getting off to a good start on the first day of the new Trimet fares.  

the right ticket machine @ sunset tc is broken. Just keeps rebooting. No way to take cash 

And in this day & age u can't really speak up lest u get shot or stabbed by some meatball.  

The fucking trimet fares went up 15 cents. 

Just hope if they find themselves disabled or when theyre elderly they dont get mad when healthy younger people don't surrender seat

I just absolutely positively can NOT respect people who do that when an elderly person needs a seat.  

Other priority seats on this Max occupied by healthy 20 something couple.  


And somehow more often than not on weekends you end up waiting @ Gateway for 14-21 minutes between Max trains.

3 routes(red/blue/green) serve Gateway Sat/Sun ea runs every 20 minutes. That's 3 of ea per hour or 6.666 minutes between trains. 

Why is it that when theoretically there should be train every 7 minutes @ Gateway on weekends u frequently wait 2-3 times that long? 

not sure why you would do service changes one day and fare changes the day before 

Way to blow past that old lady AT THE STOP #8 driver of bus ID# 2009. You're welcome for the fare increase. 

NE 60th MAX elevator could use a mopping. We need more public bathrooms! 

Saddest thing about no more Fareless Square is that we’re much less likely to go for “fun” ride on the streetcar with our 2 yr old.  

I’m happy to pay the new fares, but you need to make sure your ticket machines work. Lloyd Center: 1 of 4 working is not acceptable.

bus 9 smells like a French whorehouse!!!!!  

Did I mention the train was ahead of schedule and that's why my fat ass was running,

And also, , when the driver pointed at me and mouthed "next stop" and the next stop is half a mile away? Douche move. 

There's two parents and a baby on this bus and none of them has any teeth.  

Just saying, , I look to the driver for cues. Wave means come ahead, raised hand means stop. Some training might be in order. 

My bus (#44) isn't coming for 46 minutes. Is this our new post-cuts world? I don't like it. 

Hey ! Get your act together! 

heads up, both ticket kiosks at overlook park are malfunctioning. :/ 

It would be easier to pay my fare if the ticket kiosks were working.  

No more fareless square in downtown = really fucking lame  

Hey neither of the 148th ticket machines are working... thanks fucking assholes... ugh!!!


I forgot trimet too 

Three ways is better at Twitter than : 1) they actually answer tweets 2) they're a lot more honest and 3) hilarious 

BOO TRIMET BOO. like hell anyone is going to pay to use the streetcar downtown. 

artnchicken: RIP Trimet Free Rail Zone So, so wrong that this has come to pass.  

Ugh, Trimet, a $23 increase for your monthly pass, really? Not cool. 

R.I.P. Free Public Transit in Portland, 1975-2012 via  

New fair raise is kinda ridiculous
TriMet has been severely eviscerated by the most recent "service" changes... 

I'm currently on that 9 and it reeks of liquor, thanks to a couple that apparently bathes in it.  

The last line 12 bus I'll ever see at Gresham TC.
I feel a little weepy passing through NW as I take one of the last buses on the old #17 route. 

With the fare increase to $2.50 Trimet in is 25 cents more than the MTA fare in . And 50 times shittier.
