4:00am Keeping the Peace with the Peaceful: A night on the train

At the end of the line, Metro Transit drivers or police wake the slumbering sheltered and shuffle them along. A good use of law enforcement? The shufflers cross the tracks, settle in, and fall back asleep for 40 minutes in the direction from which they just came. In 7 hours of riding the train tonight, I haven’t seen anyone be checked for fare. Thank you, Metro Transit, for creating the shelter our community so desperately needs.
