Default Metro - 1st Ride

Below is a link to a brief article and video from Randy of "Mangu Minute" fame.

He has a fantastic blog and recently rode the Metro.

I'm just wondering how a country with such a poor track record of supplying electricity to the populace can have the luxury of building a subway/train system.

Actually i can???? As you can see this was taken at night the tren Urbano is used to transport people to el Coliseo de Puerto rico the Bigest and Most modern in latin America?????? After every concert people are in a party mood or drunk they are not celebrating like 2 year old kids the inauguration of the Metro like in Santo domingo Like I said if i was Dominican i will celebrate actully having Electricity or a dependable system?????? Not having a train that honestly the country could not afford right now.
