The car starts getting filled up as it 's passing the more populated stations and this couple asks the guy next to me whether the train is local or express . It has n't been announced yet that it 's going to go express and it 's the only option , forcing those who need to get to a stop that the train is skipping to transfer to a local back downtown . Same ol' same ol' .
According to the above context, answer the following question.
Why would the narrator be so stressed about transportation ?


There are too many unreliable options .
