TGFAF: The G and F Are Effed!

2007_12_commute2.JPG

After commuters on the L and B/D (as well as N/Q/R/W) lines had to deal with breakdowns and commuting delays last night, this evening's commute brings delays on the F, D, G and N lines.

Apparently a signal problem at 4th Avenue-9th Street Station in Brooklyn is causing the F to be shut between West 4th Street-Washington Square Station and the Church Avenue Station in both directions. The F then runs on the D and N lines, bypassing the Lower East Side, downtown Brooklyn, Carroll Gardens, and Park Slope. Oh, and there are delays expected on the G, besides the F, D, and N.

Here's the MTA Service Alert. Good luck!

How the hell will I get home to South Brooklyn? The R train, I guess.

the lame pun in the subject line is not worth the misleading statement it makes

I was caught on the L last night and the G today. have they simply given up? what happens when we have an actual disaster?

still wondering how the KCUF NY subway got into the Top 10 list of Metros of the world. For 3 (!!!) days on the row it was taking me more than 2 hours to get home in Brooklyn from Chelsea!
Yesterday B and D were just as F..p as F today, and two days ago there were 1. investigation 2. conjunctions 3. no signal on the D line!!!
nevermind the STENCH, garbage, rats, aggressive teens, annoying BUMS and riders struggling from compulsive disorder!!!

It's all starting to fall apart in this city...a few more years and then it's off to Asia--where the crime is low, the stench is coming from China but hopefully the nice winds carry it away, trains run on time down to the second, and the riders aren't a-holes.
