Train delays are the longest and happen most frequently on transit lines starting at Eastern And Southern Queens Stations






 Queens Eagle

 If you’ve commuted to or from Queens by subway this year, odds are your train has been delayed, a new report from data-scraping tool ReadyPipe shows. Using data from the MTA’s own website, the web-scraping platform determined that the A, F, N, E trains are among the city’s top-10 most-delayed subway lines.

“A negative surprise was the fact that every morning there are at least five routes that had a delay at some point,” Chad Horner, a data analyst with ReadyPipe, told the Eagle. “The MTA can’t make it through that time without a bunch of things going wrong.”
 
The A train, which takes straphangers from the Rockaways, Howard Beach and Ozone Park into Brooklyn and Manhattan, was delayed more than 11 percent of the time throughout the entire month of January. During the weekday rush hour (between 6:30 a.m. and 9:30 a.m), nearly one in every five A trains experienced delays.

The F train, which serves Queens from Jamaica-179 Street to 21 Street-Queensbridge, was delayed more than 10 percent of the time in January. The N and the E trains were delayed over 6.5 percent of the time and three of every 10 trains experienced planned work.

In fact, there wasn't a single weekday morning in January that didn't see at least one delay during the morning rush, according to Horner’s findings — the fewest number of lines delayed in a single morning was five. 


On the bright side, at least we are not getting poisoned during our daily commutes. Yet.

Oh golly gosh I wonder why the MTA is incompetent
It’s a mystery
89% of one demographic
Let’s pretend that’s diversity

The E and F were once one of the most reliable lines from 179th street. Shame.

Is anyone really surprised by this? these subway lines have always been crappy. raise the fares and cut the service, don't worry we will still pay to get screwed over by the MTA.

Subways running better than on John Lindsay's Inauguration Day January 1 1966 when Fun City was shut down by the subway and bus strike. Ah NYC - 6 trillion dollars confiscated from taxpayers since 1966 and still a disaster.
