This had to be one of the biggest embarrassing mistake ever. Did this person who came in still drunk or still hung overfrom Super Bowl party? or forgot to drink coffee to wake up?

Something happened at chambers street Clark street tracks? (2)s were running via Lexington express. I think it also said there were no uptown (2) and (3) to 96th or something like that

 

Got caught up in the mess. At the time no service was running in either direction, I had to get back in the street and march to the IND 8th Ave Line as a detour. 

 

Wasnt mad or nothing, pretty calm, its to be expected during severe storms. I got used to this after a while.

 

But boy there was some confusion, and the rants that were coming out of the mouths of many straphangers, hilarious!

How bad are the delays if they feel the need to post an alert about them? That area is always slow. All because they never built a darn flying junction. One can often walk from Grand Army Plaza to Franklin Avenue in the time it takes for a train to travel that same distance.

Exactly. The junction (east of Franklin) is the major reason why those four Brooklyn IRT lines are delayed prone during the height of rush hour, depending on the amount of frequencies provided. The (5) has to cross over to/from the local track, then cross over to get to/from the Nostrand Avenue corridor. Too bad nothing can ever be done about that. Hate that design/layout so much.

Depending on how long it took from the time the T/O reported the situation to command til it was broadcast at 1609, and your post at 1630, they might still be there. You know it was a (5) . Did you see it on your travels? If so, good catch.

Well I have an app schednyc on android and it says thee has been a 5 train approaching Brooklyn Bridge for about 35 min.Thats crazy!

If I was in that train I would walk to T/O or conducter to let me out!

Maaaan! The tech they have for phones is just crazee!

 

The app now says the train has been there for 54 min

It's 544 now. That train should be cleared or at least the passengers have been safely removed.

It's not to bad if everything is running on schedule.
