How bad is the train?

I ride the train. Every line, ranked right now. Pick yours, see the score, skip the Uber.

Still better than finding a place to park.

All lines, ranked

  1. L train3.8

    Bumper-to-bumper. Too many humans in a tin can. You know this.

    Heavy congestion at DeKalb. Try the D or N if you can.

    Delays both directions at 36 St Brooklyn. Bridge traffic.

  5. 6 train5.9
