Public intervention of GC with whom I apologize for the delay (missed):
In recent months, I had compiled and distributed a semiannual statistical delays incurred as a commuter. The initiative had attracted the interest by some newspapers, commuters and the Executive Committees of customer relations Trenitalia (National, Emilia Romagna and Lombardy).
have shone for their lack of interest only to local political (Casalpusterlengo), provincial (Lodi) and regional (Milan), even if the letter had been sent to their Transport Department. The direction of
Trenitalia was sensitive to the problems of commuters and available at all times so that in 5-6 weeks between September and October the situation had improved considerably: announcements timely departure of the train from Milan Pirelli Greek almost always in perfect time , contained delays in 5-10 minutes. Unfortunately, almost to coincide with the commissioning of the new part-time Vivalto, the situation has regressed to the level of the previous months.
seems incredible, but this brand new train has had more failures of its asthma and mature "colleagues."
Compounding the statistical delays also contributed to the derailment of the goods Secugnago that night, on 22 and 23 November, has caused severe delays to all trains. In this regard I must acknowledge that Trenitalia has addressed the very timely deployment of emergency personnel and equipment. The stations affected by the blockade of the line was manned at the earliest hours of the morning by Trenitalia personnel mobilized for the occasion. From the train Casalpusterlengo (12) and Secugnago (8) were shuttled to and from the bus station in Lodi 20: a significant organizational effort. One note to the emergency management: Station Lodi only two convoys left for Milan (at 07:10 and at 08:10), at a time (07:00 - 08:30) in which they normally leave for Milan 11 trains, but from the profane to technical problems do not know what to lead "a moving train" outside of scheduled time and perhaps on other line.
propose the following statistical of my delays on an annual basis.
These delays have not been taken "to the second, but rounded down to or over 5 minutes without cheating!
Normally used to go to the workplace (departure and arrival Casalpusterlengo) the train to Milan 20416 Piacenza Greek Pirelli leg (leaving at 7:02 and arrival at 7:52) and the train from Milan 20431 Greek Pirelli Piacenza for the return (departure at 18:07 and arrival at 18:48).
not always match that of my late train, because in case of cancellation or long delay of the train coming but use alternative connections to your destination with very strong behind schedule.
The table shows that on 199 days commuting (luckily I have avoided many days of travel and holiday travel), I have accumulated delays 4405 minut i, equal to 73.42 hours , a little less than two weeks working !
I consoled by the fact that many commuters, having traveled many more days than me, two weeks have passed plenty of work late.
