Train passengers order pizza after being stranded for three hours
Updated | By Damon Beard
What better way to pass the time than by eating a delicious pizza?!
Have you ever been stuck in a traffic jam or your flight has been delayed and there's just nothing you can do?
You just have to sit and wait.
Now imagine being trapped in a 62-mile long traffic jam that lasted for an incredible 12 days. That's what happened to a ton of poor commuters in August 2010.

The hassle was simply the result of too many vehicles clogging the road, particularly a backlog of heavy trucks carrying construction supplies, ironically for road work that was intended to help ease congestion.
So from road traffic to train passengers who were stuck for three hours recently and took sitting and doing nothing to a new level when they ordered pizza to keep their spirits up.
Clever move from a pizza company though, who delivered the food to the hungry and pretty angry passengers!
