1 train would be GOAT if it went express
Man I hate these damn trains. I'm in the middle of closing on a spot in Riverdale. Once that happens, i'm only messing with the Metro North and driving. Trains have been extra packed and slow as of late, plus the slashings and random fights on them shyts don't help at all. @radio rahiem , what line is your train on breh?
The MTA us Fukking up worse than ever right now, what is we gon do brehs?
things i noticed ..
- express trains running local all the time now
- trains dangerously crowded (yes i know ridership is higher than ever)
-stations in CAC areas have heaters but in the hood
-excessive mechanical/ signal related delays
the MTA has automation technology (CBTC used on L train) that will allow them to run more trains but their not implementing it. price keeps going up service getting worse. we need to organize to put some pressure on the MTA, de blasio, cuomo to stop ignoring these issues
We need those at Jamaica Station. That wind be brutal during the winter.
MTA is just WOAT. Thanks for the wifi and inevitable fare hike.

How high in Riverdale?
You can still get to the 1 train from there or take the buses that lead to the A
North Riverdale...on the left side of the Hudson Parkway....I'd have to drive to the 1, but that shyt is local so I'd avoid it.

Just switch at 96th like everyone else does.
For a local, you can go from Riverdale to 42nd in 40 minutes tops on the 1, and that's if you go local the whole way

I used to get from 125 to Rockefeller on the D train in minutes but that train was crowded as fucc
The thing for me is that I work in east midtown. It would be easier and faster to take the metro north if I get the place up there. The train ride is 27mins and i can just walk to the 10 blocks from the train to my job.

Yeah but how the money out wherever you at though?
Some firms popping up in BK and LIC. Slowly but surely. But won't be another 20 years till they get a good amount of high paying tech jobs in DUMBO and LIC...

True. I'm by where I can get to every train or bus reasonably well so I never lack options.

The mta board needs a complete overhaul I remember about 10-15 years ago Paul McCartney one legged wife was on the mta board. We taxpayers are paying for these board members to be driven around all day and do nothing.
The part that always pissed me off are the legislators who live nowhere near the NYC subway or buses,Metro North and LIRR are the ones who hold the most power and say where and when state money goes to fix the transportation. The second avenue subway should've been built decades ago.
