The problem is metro has gotten too damn popular for its designed size. Ridership has gone beyond what the design makes sense for. A couple of downtown hubs work if traffic isn't that large, but it's gotten too big for it.
They need 8-car trains during rush hour, but don't have the money. THey need to run the orange line through a different tunnel under the river and not through metro center. But that all costs major $$ that they don't have.
BTW, how is it that the 8-car trains can't be handled by the stations? THey all seem to be exactly 8 cars long. If someone fucked up that big-time--making the stations 71/2 cars long--they do deserve to be shot.

How about these asshole metro drivers who keep the doors open for like thirty seconds or a minute at every stop? Or the ones who keep talking and talk ign like they are all microphone happy? Shut up and drive, bitch. Has anyone ever had the guy who likes to point out that Rosslyn is the first stop in the Commonwealth of Virginia? Totally unnecessary.
