Very true. Got stuck under the Rosslyn tunnel for 35-45 minutes one time and was miserable. Got stuck above ground during one storm where a tree fell on the tracks and it took over an hour to get a replacement train. It was better because there was light and I could see more of what was going on. You know the train conductors never provide an estimate so you are stuck for an unknown amount of time.

Reply to comment by vintage_appellation in Nausea / motion sickness on metro by Kooky_Plastic8885
I think this is good advice. I get air sick if I fly on an empty stomach but if I eat a low fat meal before I fly, no issues at all. I usually get a deli sandwich dry which works for me. After riding metro for years, never experienced motion sickness so cannot say if it will help. Using MTA has never caused me an issue either. Now being trapped on a Metro train for long periods has caused me much anxiety which makes me sick to my stomach…….

I miss Vapiano. Always got the Crema di funghi pasta with tagliatelle and it was great. Loved the fresh pasta and have not seen another restaurant that is similar. The Gallery place restaurant was huge.

Sit at the seats facing inside the train near the doors. This varies on different series train but there are always ones not for handicapped that make for an easy escape.
