What has happened to our train service? Mr. Katz you have turned Israel into a third world country as far as the train service is concerned. What was once a reliable way of getting to and from work and to the airport has turned into a nightmare experience for most travelers. Not only are the trains to and from the north packed with people standing all over each other like in a cattle truck, but the trains are late, and announcements made at the last minute that the train will not reach it's final stop - it's an absolute disgrace. On Thursday I happened to be on the train which suddenly stopped at Hadera and when the replacement train finally arrived, it was like a mass stamped for people to get on to the train - a tragedy in the making. I for one will no longer bank on getting to the airport or anywhere else on time using the Israeli train service - what a shame!!!

israelis are clueless when it comes to rail travel.maint.

And now what is Katz going to do with the foreign ministry......?
