Howard randomly lost power today

Stopped at Granville for no good goddamn reason, only for the conductor to explain that power went off at Howard.

How does power at a whole-ass terminal station w/ 3 lines go out?

There is exactly ZERO inclement weather, and I would think a transit system would maybe have 1 or 2 power backups to prevent this happening.

What the fuck? What the actual fuck? All this money for RPM modernization and making stations look better - how in the hell did *every* workaround preventing this situation fail?

Shameful.
