I'm with you, I'm still trying to put together a timeline that makes sense. The LSL is scheduled into ROC at 11:00PM, it sounds like they were correctly roused 30 minutes prior to arrival. Sometime in that half hour, something happened to delay the train before its arrival into the station?I keep thinking i'm reading this wrong. i can understand being annoyed at being asked to leave the room, but otherwise i don't see what the person is all hot and bothered about. they were sleeping, they needed to get off the train. in my experience, traveling with children is not the speediest. personally, i'd rather be awake a little bit earlier and actually ready to get off the train rather than rushing around at the last minute. i'd also rather not be the person getting on the train in Rochester and finding that my room still has people in it, which i suppose could happen.
She said an hour later (so 11:30, 30 minutes after the train was supposed to depart) they were still sitting in a room.
But the line "It sat at the station for almost 45 minutes." confuses me - if they were at the station, why didn't they get off and go home? According to Amtrak's Status, the train arrived at ROC at 11:12 and departed at 11:28. If that's the case, than at most they would have been on the train for an extra 12 minutes. While somewhat annoying, I can't see getting upset over something as trivial as that.
I just can't make the timeline fit the complaint in my head. Am I missing something?
