On a transit system as big as Metro’s, something invariably goes wrong. A track busts, a train craps out, or, in one of our favorite Metro mishap moments, something causes a 27-hour delay at the Stadium-Armory station. This morning, for example, service on the Red Line between Gallery Place and Rhode Island Avenue has been suspended due to a “police situation.”

Now one crusading commuter has decided to put all the snafus, breakdowns, and mishaps into one handy searchable database. Called Kink in the Rail, the new site collects information on service disruptions throughout the system, allowing users to search them by line, by date, day of the week, station, category, or result. So if you’re curious how many trains have been held up by bodily fluids in a railcar, just check. Or intoxicated riders. Or unusual odors. You can also check on daily ridership numbers. Ironically enough, there are still a few kinks in the site, but we’ve been promised that those will be worked out.

Of course, the next logical step is integrating the database with a Metro map, allowing the visually-stimulated among us to see where things happened.
