Y2Julio Posted November 17, 2008 Share #3 Posted November 17, 2008 I just got home. Saw the train that was turned off. It was at 53rd Street, not 59th. I think they had a R160 evacuate the train with the problems. The first train was empty with no people and lights turned off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RokuSix Posted November 18, 2008 Share #4 Posted November 18, 2008 The BMT has just had awful luck today. There was a sick passenger that made all downtown locals skip 49th Street this morning. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
