Public Transport TraumaCompletely Underwhelmed writes, "I was on a bus the other day when a man got on wearing shorts, over what looked like greeny grey leggings. Then the stench hit me. The 'leggings' were a mass of open wounds, crusted with greenish solidified pus that flaked off in bits as he moved."
What's the worst public transport experience you've ever had?

Variation on a theme:I worked at Preston Station when it was still British Rail.
One morning one of the platform staff was asked by a rather bedraggled gent where the next train to Watford was.
His tale of woe:
He'd boarded the first train at about 5am to go to Watford. He fell asleep and woke up at Euston.
The staff there put him on the next fast train to Watford, which was a Preston intercity.
Between Euston and Watford he fell asleep again.
Yep, he woke up back at Preston. (To be 100% accurate he woke up at Wigan with the guard wanting to stamp his ticket so he couldn't use it again. He rather forcefully declined the offer.)
