Sorry, but the is DEFINITELY a problem. It's one of the least liked trains in Brooklyn, mainly for being "slow and old" in conventional terms.
Even on the weekends trains aren't tolerable. Just this past Friday there was a 20-25 minute gap in service during RUSH hour due to some problem in Queens, forcing several trains to bypass 53, 45, Bay Ridge Av, and 77 on the local track. It has basically become the norm here.
Oh yes, I love waiting 20-30 minutes for my trains. The only reason N/B is even tolerable for me is because of the fact that I go to 95 St and most of the time the s leave on schedule. S/B though? Forget it.
Agree 100%. I don't know about all these proposals that everyone came up with, but we can definitely start with your ideas. I use the 5-7 days/week and it is not pretty. It's because of the unreliability of the that I even considered moving lol.
