Nothing starts the week off right like starting it on Tuesday! Unless of course you live in Brooklyn and rely on the 7 train.

For those that fit that description, it might well have been a rather uneventful weekend.

SUBWAYblogger lives in Manhattan, so the 7 train closure wasn’t that big a deal. However, we feel your pain. Nothing sucks more in your transit life than when your stop is closed. This summer, the bus became our regular weekend alternative to make it over to the nearest express stop.

There’s been protests along the 7 line about the weekend line closure. Unfortunately, it won’t make any difference. In the big picture, closing the line on the weekends is the fastest way to get the work done. Otherwise, it will drag on forever.

Look at it this way, as soon as the work is done, it will be 50 years before they so much as change a lightbulb on that line!

Live from the subway, back to you in studio…
