A preview to Congestion pricing, bet you still be paying 2.25 a ride by the middle of 09'....

F train sucks.....always has since the end of the culver local.... aging tressels and over due stress impacts due to construction closer to right of way....and of course traffic on PPSW and 9th street.

Sooner or later they are gonna have to tear up 9th street and reinforce the walls to the the express tracks from Church to 7th ave....ge3t ready..

This is one of those signs where someone should write "It makes it suck" after "How does this affect my trip?" on the sign.

Since i am going to spend saturday night engaged in bachelorette shenanigans, i have given up all hopes of getting home before monday.

This kind of subway line is not suitable for drunks.
