O MTA, thou liest most foully

Does anyone really believe it's only 35 minutes to go the whole length of the 7, from Times Square to Flushing?

It depends... is the train stopping?

If it's the 7 Express (theoretically identified with a purple diamond instead of a circle, but the labels on the actual trains are a bit of a gamble), then it won't be stopping much.

What? That's nonsense. I used to take the 7 everyday from Grand Central to Queensborough Plaza and that was at least 15 minutes and that's only like, 3 stops

BWAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA... *snort*

Uh, no. Not so much. I used to live on the 7 line in Queens... it wasn't that quick to get to 74-Jackson Heights, and that's not even the end of the line. It's a frickin' milk train. And they don't run a lot of 'em, usually, so you'd best factor in time spent waiting for the train.

My, they're optimistic.

mmm, not so far off. There's an express 7 as well as a local. I lived in College point for a while. Took the bus to Main street, the 7 end to end, and the 3 down to Wall St - the whole operation took about an hour and a half.

love the rabbitar :o)
