Monday Subway Delays on 6 lines Sparked by Switch Problems at WTC, MTA Says

MANHATTAN — Monday morning's commute was plagued with delays as switch problems at the World Trade Center disrupted six lines, officials said.

The A, B, C, D, E and F trains were all disrupted when the problems began at  8:19 a.m., an MTA spokeswoman said.

E trains were suspended between the trade center and West Fourth Street and every other line was delayed, the MTA said.

The MTA didn't offer details about the problems. They were repaired by 9:10 a.m. and trains returned to service with delays, according to the MTA.

Angry riders took to social media to vent their frustration about the delays Monday morning.
