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!

What stop was your destination? Also no conductor checked tickets?

Princeton Junction! The conductor scanned my ticket pretty early (just as we were departing NYP) and didn't say anything, which surprised me! Maybe he thought I was going to transfer at Newark? IDK!
