Yep. The EWR-ZFV train was supposed to and
ALWAYS arrives and leaves from
track 4 but instead arrived and left from
track 1. The CSR at EWR was pissed because no one was informed until the train arrived at track 1. We raced to catch the train but the lousy conductor left within two minutes of arriving. Everyone was scratching their heads about this one and the CSR at NJ Penn informed me this will be taken care off and would not happen again (I highly doubt this).
