My Entry in The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #905

The mice are commuting by rail in The New Yorker Cartoon Caption Contest #905 from the issue of July 22, 2024. My caption is shown below. The drawing is by Ellis Rosen.

"You should have called me before rush hour."



These captions hit the third rail:

"I can't do anything without a timetable."
"It's too late for traps."
"I'd hate to shut it down—it's right on schedule."
"That's the problem with basement apartments."
"You never heard of mouse transit?"
