RAIL TRAVEL NOT WHAT IT USED TO BE

An elderly commuter wrote an outraged letter to the New York Times complaining about current trends in rail travel.
The letter-writer claimed he was aboard a Long Island Railroad train recently and shared a compartment with a younger woman. When he demanded that she take her clothes off, the woman refused.
"This would never have happened on the LIRR I used to know," the cranky commuter wrote.
