Why Humvees are better than mass transit

A Florida sinkhole has stopped an Amtrak train in it's tracks:

A 15-foot sinkhole in central Florida stranded or delayed 10 trains, including more than 1,200 Amtrak passengers.

The hole was spotted Sunday afternoon by a crew on southbound CSX freight train near Deland, southwest of Daytona Beach.

Officials first said they would have the hole repaired by Sunday evening, but later realized it would take much longer, the Orlando Sentinel said Monday.

An Amtrak Silver Meteor with 267 people on board bound for Miami was stalled on the tracks for at least six hours near the tiny town of Barberville. Passengers sat on the train in the woods with nothing to do until buses arrived about 10 p.m.

Nine other trains, four of them carrying passengers, were also delayed, stopped or rerouted Sunday evening, affecting 1,212 people, Amtrak officials said.

You never see headlines saying, "Hummer blocked by sinkhole, eight passengers delayed."
