An Amtrak train travelling to Washington, DC
It was Union Station bound
The Amtrak train was maneuvering in acceleration in sound
Everything was moving in a timely fashion
At least that is what the passengers thought
Then suddenly the Amtrak came to an immediate stop
Mechanical problems came up
Meanwhile the Amtrak train being stuck on the rails
Apparently something on the train had failed
One of the passengers felt the train would be stuck for a while
The passenger took action in style
So the passenger called from his cell a nearby Pizza Restaurant, and had the Pizza delivered directly to the Amtrak train
The passenger thought, “If I am going to be stuck on the rails, it’s going to be feed my hunger being the trail”
But the question does come up
There’s a snack car aboard, and why wasn’t it utilized?
I guess with mechanical problems with no power, all the Amtrak Personnel aboard could do was apologize
The Amtrak train finally arrived in Washington, DC three hours late
I would have taken the bus and avoided the fuss.
