The only blog written from the NYC Subway system

Did you hear about the mother who came home last night only to find her two kids dead in the bathtub? The mother got home around midnight after work. Daddy was home “taking care” of the kids.
Allegedly, he drowned the two little ones in the bathtub. He then went down to the subway and threw [...]

It is annoying how one little problem on a subway line can screw things up EVERYWHERE. A five minute diversion on the C train can cause hours of backups on the 1 train. Stuff like that.
This morning, there must have been a holdup somewhere because the entire platform was 10 people deep. Even then, it [...]

Sorry to everyone who was expecting the usual afternoon post. I left work 30 minutes early and headed to the Bronx to catch the tonight’s game. On the way up here I rode by car with a buddy from work, hence no Live update this afternoon.
I just left the stadium after the end of the [...]

I’m what you call an “end-rider.” I prefer to ride near the very front or rear of the [...]

What’s with all the subway cars with broken air conditioning?
