Train 85 hit a trespasser just before Metropark today.....we were held up 2 hours waiting for a rescue train. We had 225 pax to put onto (i think) 137....it was SRO.....the conductor said 225 pax, the story below has a lower number..

we just stopped short of the station...i heard some pax opened a door and got out and walked to metropark, but i can't confirm this. I didn't hear any horns sounding a warning, nor did the train feel like it hit the brakes hard....not speculating or anything, just reporting what my experience was being on this train this afternoon.....not sure what i expected-in all my train travels, i have never been a pax on a train that hit someone/thing until today......
