NYC Subway Delays: Signal Problems Halt M Trains
The issues suspended service on the M line and caused delays on three others.
QUEENS, NY — Signal problems in Manhattan and Queens halted M train service between the two boroughs Friday morning. Trains were not running on the line between Essex Street-Delancey Street and Forest Hills-71st Avenue because of the issues at Woodhaven Boulevard and Rockefeller Center, the MTA said.
The problems also rerouted some trains in Queens and led to delays on the E, F and R lines, the transit agency said.
Some southbound E trains were forced to run local from Forest Hills-71st Avenue to Queens Plaza, while some southbound F trains ran local from Forest Hills to 21st Street-Queensbridge, according to the MTA.
