I caught an AP train this past week from Oporto to Lisboa...The conductor started moving the train while elderly and families with children where trying to board...Extremely dangerous and incompentent...The worst I have seen in 5 years living in Portugal...Continue down the path of rewarding corrupt government officials and there lackies and these kind of incidents will continue and worse...
