This is getting ridiculous!
But this is also getting more common. When I was a kid freezing rain was something that happened every couple of years...now it's something that happens many times a year. And this was the exact finding of the study the city commissioned on the effects of climate change on the region. The fact the train cannot deal with freezing rain is existential. At some point we are going to be choosing between keeping ineffectual bureaucrats and incompetent contractors or having a train service. When freezing rain is a weekly occurrence, if the train cannot operate during it, then there is no train.
