THE LIE CONTINUES... SEPTA issued a press release dated January 22 about the current cold snap and its effect on SEPTA service. Just as SEPTA's chief spokesman/apologist/liar Richard Maloney lied to the Daily News on Thursday (see link below), the press release apparently doesn't give R5 Paoli/Thorndale riders impaced last Tuesday and solace. To wit, the second paragraph starts off as follows:

"SEPTA has not experienced any major system failures as a result of the [weather] conditions."

Oh, so 20 to 30 minute delays on one of SEPTA's most important rail lines is not considered a "major system failure" by SEPTA standards, then what does? A 15 minute delay on the R3 West Trenton line north of Jenkintown?
