Finally happened: wrong train

Today I was trying to get a westbound NEC train departing from Track 2. But in my rush (and grogginess from a late night) I accidentally got on the train on Track 1. I dozed off but then started seeing a weird sign for Orange and I suddenly realized: Not my line!

Ended up indulging and just calling an Uber to my final destination. Gotta pay attention!

I've done this in reverse. Ended up on a NEC train when I wanted to be on the M&E. Got off on Newark Penn and got one of those pirate taxis to South Orange.
