L Train Down For Realz
Twitter alerts us to a very down L train. It is stuck in the tunnel, and has been for an hour, and everyone is now firmly planted in Williamsburg forever. No matter how bad it gets out there people, just remember this day.
When you're old and gray and living somewhere far, far away from the city, your kids will ask, "Grandma, where were you that day when the L train went down 4ever." And hopefully you'll have a wonderful story to tell.
Oh, and hey! Today is the new cream cheese-loving MTA chairman's very first one on the job. He was out greeting riders earlier this morning. Can we blame him? Probably not. But should we, just to give him a warm welcome to "one of the state’s most high-pressure jobs"? Yes! Jay H. Walder, you broke it!
Update: Not anymore.
