Car 1720, oh my.

Car 1720 stinks to high heaven, even by BART standards.

Let me see, no 'proudly maintained by' sticker ... seems no Yard wants to claim this one.

Yeah, I've been in that car

Yeah, I've been in that car many times and have noticed it is probably the worst smelling in the fleet. At least, it's the most noticeable. Some bum must have died in it and was left in it over the weekend, or something. Its been bad for months and you think someone would have tried to get the stank out by now, right???

Ouch bartarded that snung a little. I checked car history and there is no record of anyone reporting car 1720 had a bo problem so I have logged it . Hopefully this will get taken care of next time the car is shopped.

Hey, thanks for coming by and responding. Do you know where people can report this sort of problem directly, so it will actually get fixed and not ignored? Some sort of maintenance line, not a general answer line?

Letting the Train Operator

Letting the Train Operator might get some results. I check back here once in awhile so you can post things here and I will log them.
