If you ever saw or smelled a toilet on metro north you would wonder what the heck the guy was going to do with the phone once he got it back out.

At least he had the courtesy not to use the phone in the coach......

Yer off-topic. That happened on Metro-North RR, not Amtrak. Next time, please put the letters "OT" in the subject line—thank you...

Funny story, lol ----This guy must have really wanted his cell back to dig his hand up in a toilet! If I were him i'd just go in the lounge or take a walk around--Why go in the bathroom inless its real private, Well I hope he isnt blaming the Train b-room for his problem---He stuck his hand in..HEHEHEHEH

I got the article out of last fridays NY Times. It was very professionally written, given the content.

My quote from a different post:
Cellular phones should be placed on the rails of an active rail line until after the next train goes through.

Trust me, your life will keep going.
