I will admit that it is a fairly fast local./end thread However, during the AM rush hour those extra minutes can mean the difference between getting a coffee and bagel or not having breakfast. Darn. Anyhow, leave earlier... It's worth it for the peace of mind a ride on a local with a seat provides... They can also be the difference between catching a connection and missing it (and trust me, if your trip has multiple transfers one missed connection can screw you). Uh, my current commute involves 2 or 3 As such, LEAVE EARLIER. However, no matter what I say I'll hear the same "The V train is the greatest line" rhetoric. But it is. Where else is there an empty local along a crowded corridor???? The V is a gift from above. So tell you what, I'll ride the V train end to end after you stop taking Metro-North and instead take the 1 train straight to Midtown (no transfer at 96st). You'll then realize why people prefer the express over the local. Um, I rode the "1 train straight to Midtown (no transfer at 96st)" for several months. Don't tell me what I don't know. I know very well why people prefer an express over a local. And so does everyone else. But that's with all other things being equal. With the V vs. the F, all other things are NOT equal, namely the crowding. |
