Stuck in a 7 Train


Uh oh: News reports say that about 1500 passengers are stuck in 7 trains between Times Square and Hunters Point; plus service is suspended. The MTA says it's a smoke condition. Gothamist feels very sorry for 7 train riders, because the 7 train has been out during recent weekends - we hope you get out soon. And in the meantime, we also hope you've got some reading material handy.

If you were stuck on a 7 train, tell us what happened. What did the conductors say? When Gothamist was in a delayed train, the conductor did a good job of reassuring people. And this means other trains, like the E, F, and G will be super crowded and that the MTA will be dispatching tons of buses.

when i left my apartment this morning in greenpoint, i could see and hear the helicopters that were above the site.

also, the conductor on the G train was saying that at first, they thought they had the fire out, so they sent a train in that had people in it, which caused another fire.

If you take the 7, you're constantly stuck and unmoving. It's Satan's subway.

The 7's not that bad. But beware of the express. Riding the 7 Express is taking a chance with your life. Feels like half the time the train is going to fly off the tracks.
