Comments on: Delays everywhere http://cow.org/c/archives/77 Community supported Caltrain notices, one tweet at a time Sat, 26 Jun 2010 08:19:37 -0400 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.5 hourly 1 By: alienvenom http://cow.org/c/archives/77/comment-page-1#comment-108 alienvenom Fri, 19 Jun 2009 06:13:12 +0000 http://cow.org/c/?p=77#comment-108 One great resource for information (in addition to the tweets of course) is the Caltrain radio feed (which has actually been posted to @caltrain before). Whenever I hear about a delay, I load up Tuner Internet Radio (iPhone) and listen to the feed available here: http://tinyurl.com/logrqo It gets pretty vocal during "incidents" but usually you just hear the annoying automated Caltrain detectors at work.

Also I appreciate mentioning the source (overheard on radio, station message boards,etc). Subscribing to the Caltrain twitter feed keeps me ahead of the game, at work and in transit. Thanks Ravi and updaters! (to the editorializers: I honestly feel your anger. I do. But isn't it more satisfying to get the real info out there? I find it helpful to channel my anger that way) I’m echoing the previous gratitude for the entire service and concept.

I read @caltrain for information, not opinions, and I imagine that's true of most people. Thanks for saying something about the editorial tweets again.

Definitely hampered my ability to get reliable information. I definitely did not appreciate people giving attitude in their tweets on @caltrain this morning.
