Latest "seen and heard on Trimet"

But not seen on TRIMET'S HOW WE ROLL BLOG!
 TRIMET SCANNER TWEETS  
So a 30+ min late bus AND now you're telling me you can't complete the route and I have figure out how to get home? Thanks

 


53m
Oh no trimet, i didnt have anywhere to be or anything. Take your time.

Why did 5 Hawthorne buses just passed by within a 5 min. Period in 92nd and Woodstock???? & I'm still waiting for the 10 or the 71 .


This is depressing. My bus is 13 minutes late and 3 15s will pass before it gets here.

Completely unacceptable level of service. Let me know if you need more CS forms filled out. I will fill out a hundred more.  

This is the thirteenth consecutive day that the line 16 is more than 15 minutes late when I'm heading home. Not cool, .

Yep, those are police officers. With a guy in handcuffs. On the MAX. Riding it to the police station.

standing room only on this 57 yet can't be bothered with west side service improvements

Lol there's a 75 in front of me and a 75 behind me. Good work

there is no excuse why 57/69 left 6 minutes late from Beaverton. Where's my reimbursement for being late?

Nice of TriMet to run a train whose front car sign had 1 destination and the back car had another. Almost wound up on the wrong train.

No green or yellow line from PSU for last 15 minutes ... not a peep from as to delays. Does anyone know what is up?

Trimet cop just passed me with a slight nod, and checked everyone else.

A guy just got on the bus with a shirt that says 'sorry...you're just too much of an idiot for me to handle'. I need that shirt.

Help donate febreze to our local Trimet busses and block the body odors of these dirty fucks

Oh my fucking fuck these trimet detours. If I'm late to work my boss will flip and I'm not emotionally ready for that treatment today.

Maybe save your phone conversation about your drug addicted siblings for sometime when you're NOT on the bus. Maybe? No?

Wait, so 13 mins ago the 70 tracker said 7 mins, now it says 6.

Just saw a bus on the shoulder of the 5 North. In the middle of California. Wut.

Machine #631 is broken at the SE Fuller stop.

so some crazy shit went down that night. Basically, I feel asleep on trimet. I woke up hALF WAY ACROSS FUCKING OREGON.

It is entirely unacceptable for drivers to be discriminating against people with service cats. This behavior needs to be ended.

. just put fucking ticket gates up instead of making everyone feel like criminals and show their "papers" to the police

Probably not a great idea to make a turn while the streetcar is passing.

Three 12s racing down Barbur right now. I hope I picked the one that will get to Tigard TC first!

should rebrand to tristapo. A little truth in advertising goes a long way.

Federal transportation law says service animals may ride uncrated in the handler's lap or on the floor. can't handle this.

even more your agency sucks at disability. Fix it.

Next time I ride I'll be sure to wear my Star of David. Don't want any trouble.

cont i highly recommend you get your shit together when it comes to ada & service animals. He ridews in my lap.

Wow your service animal training from the shitstorm a week ago didnt take at ALL. Do not make me sue.

I saw transients get targeted and kicked off for 16 days for holding the doors by a squad of sheriffs. Great use of taxes.

Pro-bono lawyers should totally ride the max.

Transit police shaking down transients on the max.

This is some of the best rocking out I've seen on the Trimet in a minute, but I can't get footage covertly.

Thanks just saw 2 #21's back to back, barely stopped at tc, we could have made our transfer.

the driver for train 319A needs to do a little less scolding and a little more driving # insulting

Very nice bus driver on bus #2921 line 20 just escorted a confused traveler to the right bus stop

Ok weirdos shouting at each other and guy loses shorts in cross walk. But his pitbull is adorable. Another typical max day.

And now she's arguing with friend over the definition of "trinity". One more stop...

Hey , why is the #8 always late? Also, could we get a new bus added to our line once in a while?? Thanks

What is wrong with this afternoon? This #12 NB is more than a half hour behind schedule at this point, and it's not b/c of traffic.

permissive attitude is what I love about living here. It can also be the worst part of being a driver.

It's always a good time listening to seniors mutter about how people (younger) act, look, and dress on the MAX.

But the streetcar always runs on time! Tee hee! #%!&$@trimet

I love it that the max train that came by at 143 and said it was a green line was actually a yellow line. Wonderful . Wonderful

I don't think the service has ever been that great. And I've lived here for 21 years.

How the hell can any proper metropolitan city stop running its trains after midnight? It's a damn crime.

It's amazing how much reliability and service has gone downhill just in the 8 years I've lived in Portland.

Hey , why have no trains gone down 6th ave since 130?

, why have we been waiting for a Yellow train for 30 minutes, with a Green having already passed and another on its way?

Being on trimet with other people that have kids is like the ULTIMATE birth control

There is this one bus driver that always gives me free all day bus fare

Trimet is awful

Trimet police wouldn't let a 12yo kid on the max to go home so I bought his ass a ticket. Thank you officers

I hate Trimet...

That's an understatement. The (lack of) clear signage & communication is maddening.

5th & Couch fare machine needs some help!

Couldn't that have been shorted to just "Trimet confuses, frustrates" :)

I think my train may have just evaporated. (at Lents Town Center/Foster Rd MAX Station)

Sent a complaint to . I'd really thought they'd cleaned up their communication's act. Guess not.

If you want to lose weight, try the diet. You can only eat a meal when it shows up on time. But you might die of starvation

Reason number: 1,234,567 why sucks...use trip planner and transit tracker and it makes us miss the MAX to the airport. 20mins late

OK seriously? Five eastbound and for 45 mins I've been waiting for a westbound train. WTF? Hello?

Just left BTC on MAX. I have a sneaking suspicion 403/412 are behind us, but don't know for sure. That was the GH train earlier.

oh, delays again.

after waiting 50 minutes i finally got a Max train empty enough to get my bike on

Sunset transit center and max leave much to be desired thus far... Please tell me it gets better?

just saw wb blue leave sunset people that have been waiting at BTC have no chance getting on.

Seriously, fuck trimet cops. You guys are fucking jokes. Giving me a ticket for my pass expiring 20 minutes late? Prick.

Long commute home and missing my connecting shuttle home because TriMet trains are unreliable.

WB blue is so late the late train doesn't even show up anymore and shows it another 15 mins out heading to Sunset just for the ac

24 minutes waiting at BTC and counting. Got off a red next is a blue and after that is one to 185th. Crowded, hot trains going west!

And, to end the day, the trains have been stalled for almost 20 minutes. Seriously, . You wonder why people complain.

smoker in the shelter at stop 202. Breathe & roast or stay shaded but cough! (& then get yelled at for coughing)

I didn't even know busses could honk. This guy has honked at everything wearing a skirt.

Driver on the 17 is flirting with everything that moves.

your Barnes Rd stop across from Albertsons has a yellow jacket nest at the stop. A driver was nice enough to stop & tell my daughter

On the 10 bus, there is a Trimet employee wearing what appears to be a uniform kilt. Only in Portland.

At SE Center stop on . Changing drivers takes 3min. While drivers chit-chat.........it is a little thing. Sure. But c'mon!?

The lady sitting in front of me on the bus has terrible BO. And is that lice???

your ticket machine at glisan and 5th () isn't working.

Fucking Trimet!

Aging rich couple looks terrified boarding the Streetcar, then almost falls over as it starts moving.

It's wonderful when you sit down on the bus next to someone who keeps their legs spread out so as to give you less than ample space.

S/o to Trimet bus drivers who have to deal with assholes.

Car is in the shop so on this fuck Trimet shit again.

absolutely inexcusable, especially to the handicapped and injured.

the blue line train has lost power/stopped short 3 times this morning, sending everyone flying. Now forced to get off very early.

first ticket machine at Beaverton Creek broken, yet again. How about replace it.

thanks for being 20 minutes late!!!

My first real (non-orientation) day of work and the bus drives right passed me. I've been sitting at the stop for 10 min.. Thanks

6093 needs to learn customer service. Why did he need to be 3+ minutes early in early AM to my stop with 5 stops before WCTC?

Bipolar driver just stomped. On gas then hit brake hard trying to slam me to the floor 645am Assets

Just woke up from a dream where a TriMet worker was mistaking me and for newbie bus drivers. O_o

Fuck, . I know that doing anything pro driver is unlikely, but these new busses are terribly uncomfortable.

I seriously need a car. I hate using Trimet.

Toooo many faded people on Trimet right now
