— Hannah Stamler (@hstamler) May 4, 2015Oh, so this is why young, creative New Yorkers are moving to L.A.: At 8:51 a.m., the MTA alerted subway riders, "Due to a train with mechanical problems at Bedford Av, L trains are running with delays in both directions. Allow additional travel time."
From the commutertariat, who are especially angry, having spent the weekend without L train service:
l train broke down.
thanks @MTA
happy monday.

— Kyle Chayka (@chaykak) May 4, 2015yo @MTA why are L train riders still paying for rides?????
— kimye forrester (@lilkimff) May 4, 2015If computers can find the Higgs-Boson and water on Mars, why can't they run the #LTrain properly?
— Deucey (@Nosyblackman) May 4, 2015MTA, you had all weekend to fix the L train. How does it go down only a few hours into Monday service? #shouldhavebikedtowork
— sharilyn (@sharilyn) May 4, 2015The #Ltrain can't be fucked up ALL the time! @NYCTSubway Welcome to Monday in heels!! Walking this ass to union square
— Monzie Nackard (@monzzienack) May 4, 2015you have not seen rage until you've seen G-trainers get told to get back on the G-train because the L train is not working
— Maxwell Strachan (@maxwellstrachan) May 4, 2015If you found this commute frustrating, tell your state representatives and Governor Cuomo to stop robbing the MTA of badly needed funding and figure out a way to come up with more cash for a 21st Century subway system.
