"The 2 train is going back to school to pursue a career in massage therapy..."
New Yorker cartoonist Ellis Rosen has created a wonderful illustration to pair up with the entire city's mounting subway frustrations. The cartoon features explanations of what's up with your subway lines— "The 2 train is going back to school to pursue a career in massage therapy... The F train has accepted a position at another subway system... The L train is taking three years off to find itself."
Today, many subway lines took a field trip to Signal Problems University. They are scheduled to be back in time for the rush hour commute.
Delays: #B #D #F #M line. Tsk, tsk, way too slow #MTA! West 4th signal problems - up to 20 mins and counting.

Today it took me an hour and a half to get from Bay Ridge to Chelsea because of "signal problems" on R.

Perhaps Rosen can continue the series and deliver more fanfic into what our busted MTA trains are up to. Pretty sure most of them have not yet been informed they're part of our subway system.
