Recent record heatwave in the Bay Area made riding BART a sweaty mess because of long lines, delays, and not enough air-conditioned cars.
A: My husband and I commuted on BART daily about 20 years ago. Since then, we have ridden BART periodically.
Last Thursday we had our most miserable ride ever. It started out fine at Antioch station around 5 p.m. We got off at the Pittsburg transfer station and noticed a crowd of people waiting to get on. It was about 110 degrees. A fellow passenger commented that the people waiting to board looked like zombies. We soon discovered why.Q: We ended up waiting in the 110-degree heat for 20, if not 30 minutes.
When we finally boarded the SF-bound train, we realized the air conditioning was not working. We were sweating profusely and would have turned around, if it wouldn’t have meant missing the Lady Gaga concert we were going to. We talked about going home or getting an Uber/Lyft, but it was too late to drive to our destination in time. Clothing soaked through, we decided to stick it out.Q: The train had to drive much slower than normal for safety.
