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?

Some other poor sod's public transport nightmare...I dread reading things like this, because I expect to see a story along the following lines:
"It was a pissing wet Sunday evening and I needed to get to Ibrox. So I asked a bloke standing at a bus stop chatting to his mate how to get there. 'Oh yeah', he said, 'get the 62 along to Partick, then hop on the Underground - it's two stops along, takes no time at all.' Except when I got there, the Underground was all locked up for the night..."
As he got on the 62 and we waited for the 205, I nodded an affable silent farewell and looked at the clock on my phone. 17:53. Oh cock. There was no way the poor sod was going to get there in time to catch the Underground, which shuts at 6pm on a Sunday.
I'm really really sorry.
Length? 30 feet, for the normal Dennis Dart...

The Glasgow UndergroundIs a fucking shambles. 6pm on a Sunday??? That was lovely when I was working at Braehead - any shift finishing later than 5pm and it added an hour onto my journey home. :(
