Turn back all ye who enter! Apparently there's a sick passenger at Lex 59? I've been on an unmoving train for about 10 minutes.
Edit: Trains are moving again but very slowly (9:20 am)

Lol the conductor just changed it to "stalled train" from "sick passenger". Why can't they just be honest about what's going on?
A train was stalled at lex and my w was stuck in the tunnel for 20 mins. My w pulledinto lex and now this train had the sick passenger.
Ah thank you, I take back my criticism! Why does this always happen when I need to be somewhere at 9
Why can't we just kick the sick passenger out at the next stop, call for help and not fuck every train for the next few hours?
I was in the car with the sick passenger. She got up right at Lex and got out. They may have been stopped looking for her and didn’t realize she left. That or there was yet another sick passenger elsewhere. Super crowded train without AC, I wouldn’t be surprised if there were a few
Woot, I was thinking I kinda missed having delays this week!
Sitting at Broadway now for almost 15 minutes
9:06 edit: announcement that stuck train is about to move 9:07: aaaaand moving! 9:31: finally made it to lex...
Interested to see if service magically clears up. This shit is stalling to 36th.
Still delayed. Stuck at Broadway. Basically the N/W are dead to me. Every single time I need to go somewhere service is fucked.
around 8:45AM we stopped at 36Ave and the conducter kept repeating that there was an ongoing investigation and suggested people walk to Queens plaza to take the E or 7 to Grand central. Plenty people did just that. Can't believe people are still having issues even afterwards...
I walked home and worked from home, because of train issues I am working from home almost once a week which doesnt look good on me.
At least once a week i'm having a 90+ minute commute and showing up later than I should. It's ridiculous
why is it almost always an issue at Lex 59? Wasn't there a fire there last week?
What frustrates me most is that the delays are staggered so it takes forever to leave each stop. If the problem is at Lex, take me to QBP or at least 39th so I have other options like the 7 or walking to the G, M, or R. If the N is running like shit I want to be off the ride as soon as possible. I understand that there are trains ahead but it never seems like they're just firing off NW trains in the morning so I highly doubt it's that backed up.
I think my train got the initial delay reason: we were told it was a police investigation at lex at 8:30 this morning. Stuck between queensboro and lex for a solid 30 min
Had a 9:30 conference call, so figured I should aim to be at the office by 9. Means I missed the initial delay, but then no local trains at Union Square. Made it in by 9:27, so I guess what I'm saying is we have to prepare to be at least half an hour earlier than we need to. That's just fucking fantastic.
We have citibike now. Just ignore that broken train.
Trains are not moving as of 9:56am. Ugh these delays happens every dayyyyy
Thanks for the update. I was just going to leave after mta Twitter posted service has resumed
im stuck on a train at i think 30th right now, was already late so this is just peachy.
theyre stopping with a delay at every single station

Well damn dude, wake up a little earlier so you don't fuck up the trains for everyone else.
For me, it's the days that I'm super motivated to get into work early. "Let's see, I'll roll in around 8 before anyone else is there, get all this stuff done before the kids come at 9..." Cut to me running up the stairs at 8:57 past the kids I'm there to teach.
