Attention New Jersey Transit Passengers, the 1:45 local to Trenton is now forty-five minutes late...

Like most Americans used to airplanes, cars, or, God forbid, the New Jersey Transit, I find the German train system (the "Deutsche Bahn") to be one of the greatest things to ever exist. However, today at lunch I learned that most Germans are not big fans of the good ol' DB. When I asked my co-workers what was wrong with the Deutsche Bahn, the boss man said, "you know, it never comes when it says it will. In Switzerland, you can time your watch to it. The train's coming at 8:06? At 8:05:50, you can count down, 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, and boom, the doors open. Here, the train's coming at 8:06, you just don't know. It might come at 8:07 or even 8:10."
