A straphanger's diary of the ridiculous happenings aboard the A train. A circus of entertainment for only $2.50!

DAY 50 & 51

Same thing happened two days in a row.


Frantic tourist on train: Does this train go to the JFK?

Passenger 1: Um, yeah, no, maybe.

Passenger 2: Well it depends. You need a far rockaway bound A train. Not a lefferts boulevard A train.

Tourist: Which is this?

Passenger looks for a digital display on the inside of the car. There is only one and it glows a sickly green-yellow. No words are displayed on it.

Passenger: Guess you'll find out.

..the next day...

Jay Street Station. Woman on train platform. A train has arrived. It is extremely crowded.

Woman: Is this going to the airport?
It doesn't say on the outside.

Passengers: (get out of the way, lady)
