@MTA nothing makes more sense than deploying two e trains within 3 minutes of each other and then creating a 10 min delta between the next E train. It’s not 200 degrees on the platforms on July 17th.

[Alex James @ajames000]

@MTA the two guys doing drugs at the end of the E platform at 51st southbound are less dangerous/risk than the mom who can’t pay for her metro upstairs? The security guy blocking mom isn’t stopping the drug use. This seems rational.

[Alex James @ajames000]

@MTA guy smoking crack on the bottom of the stairs at 50th and 8th. Queens bound side, do something. Kids are here.

[Alex James @ajames000]

@NYCTSubway Appreciate your super quick Twitter response. How about you guys deploy security to the platforms instead of wasting your time protecting us from the evil fare evaders who are ruining the city with their lack of 2.90!

[Alex James @ajames000]

@MTA a couple of crack heads hanging out at the end of the southbound E platform on 50th and 8th. Cameras are expensive but people getting hurt is more costly. Do something.

[Alex James @ajames000]

@NYCTSubway @NYCTSubway you’ve never witnessed someone high on crack, fentanyl, or heroine? Yall need to start walking the platforms. I witnessed a guy frantically running back and forth with sneakers in his hand and placing them in different spots, he was occasionally shouting.

[Alex James @ajames000]

@NYCTSubway @MTA Appreciate the explanation.

[Alex James @ajames000]

@MTA why is it a daily experience for the C and E to arrive at 50th and 8th at the same time 16:52ish… and then make folks wait 2-3 minutes on the subway for traffic to clear up?

[Alex James @ajames000]

@NYCTSubway @MTA I get that, I don’t get why they arrive at the same time and then play rock paper scissor to see who goes first. What if one train arrived 2 minutes before the other train and no one had to wait?

[Alex James @ajames000]

@MTA your abysmal ability to keep trains running on time at rush makes me want to live here forever. Love 12 minute delays on the E line at rush hour. Tax dollars being put to use!

[Alex James @ajames000]

@MTA when was the last time y’all rode the G during rush hour and waited 15 min for the G to sandwich yourself into a train and then roll out into court square and further sandwich oneself? How much money does the MTA need to increase train frequency on the G? This is terrible.

[Alex James @ajames000]

@roperfurley @MTA Cool, sounds like we are on the same team.

[Alex James @ajames000]

@MTA what’s the logic behind a 7 min wait for the next G, then a 3 min wait for the following G, during rush hour? 7,3,7,3?

[Alex James @ajames000]

@roperfurley @MTA @roperfurley if you re-read my message, you’ll see that I’m asking for the logic behind this, not complaining. Why are they 7 and 3, and not 3.5, consistently? It seems like a better user experience if trains come every 3.5 min, instead of waiting for 7, every other train.

[Alex James @ajames000]

@NYCTSubway I see. Thank you for confirming a 19 min wait between trains during rush hour. Who cares about greenpoint.

[Alex James @ajames000]

@NYCTSubway what happened to the 6:34 north bound G?

[Alex James @ajames000]

@NYCTSubway Nassau G north bound. Subway arrived at 6:47 after standing here since 6:31

[Alex James @ajames000]

@MTA what happened to the 6:34 north bound G train at Nassau? Never showed up, I love 20 minutes in the sauna, but I have no shower to use.

[Alex James @ajames000]

@MTA also, will cover my citibike ride home now?

[Alex James @ajames000]

@MTA how do I request a refund for my broken E train experience?
