Is just me?

Has anyone who commutes during the regular rush hour notice that Bart has been delayed for various reasons lately? I noticed that it's been more common to have the trains late so it's very difficult to ever predict the times that are normally posted. I'm not getting bent out of shape about it but just curious if others notice it?

I commute from Fruitvale to Embarcadero and back.

I guess I will consider

I guess I will consider myself lucky, or its the times of the day, as I travel Pittsburg/BayPoint to SFO on a daily basis all my trains are relatively on time. Then again, I also give myself "extra" times just in case of unforseen issues in the system.

Service has been squirrely

Service has been squirrely lately. Lots of slowdowns and stops in the transbay tube going into SF during the AM. If they keep running 8-car trains during the commute, I might start taking AC Transit. Yesterday at noon, a 10-car train from SF to Bay Point but they can't run 10-car trains during the commute. They must be on crack over at BART.

Seems like they are breaking

Seems like they are breaking the trains down to make them go through SF more often during commute. During the day or at night they may have more available cars and run the trains less often.

As for "Medical Emergencies" at BART, drag them off, I need to get to work.
