Guest Charles Posted February 17, 2009 Share #25 Posted February 17, 2009 Define reliable: Is it the train coming on time? Is it the train not breaking down? Is it the speed of the train? The is pretty reliable...it just doesn't run on weekends. Queens Blvd Local is still pretty decent in terms of speed. The is also pretty reliable but you're going to have to have a lot of time on your hands! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
