2004年10月26日，人们在纽约时代广场乘坐地铁。纽约地铁系统于100年前的10月27日开通，当时IRT线路从市政厅延伸到曼哈顿上城区。1904年，15万人每人支付5美分乘坐纽约的第一条地铁，如今每天有450万乘客使用该市842英里的地铁线路。
如果乘客想在周一晚上乘坐曼哈顿和布鲁克林之间的地铁，他们将面临复杂的通勤。由于一个开关故障，一些铁路线出现了公共交通中断。
受故障影响的线路包括2、3、4、5和F列车。
“我们为今晚的服务中断道歉，但是请知道我们正在尽最大努力让服务继续运转，尽快送你回家，”大众运输管理局周一在推特上说。
大家好。
曼哈顿和布鲁克林之间的2/3/4/5服务因富兰克林大道的开关故障而中断。
布鲁克林有五分之二的火车服务暂停。
3号和4号服务也受到影响。
“我们强烈建议骑手们沿着字母线到达目的地，”the报文传送代理在推特对搁浅新闻的回复中说投出恰好落于球拍下面之球。
就在上周五报文传送代理也遭受了严重的关闭，影响了三个区的乘客。
周五的电脑故障关闭了1、2、3、4、5和6列火车以及中央车站和时代广场之间的终点站。纽约市交通主席安迪Byford称电脑关机的备份系统“似乎不起作用”
由于计算机故障，列车在计算机系统重新启动时保持不动，据报道需要90分钟。
“出于安全原因，列车被要求在中断时保持其位置，并且其中一些列车位于车站之间，”一份声明从报文传送代理。
与此同时，该国大部分地区正遭受着过度的热浪，使得地铁站比平时更热，并导致整个城市停电。
纽约市推特用户表达了他们对报文传送代理在不那么微妙的推特信息中。
一位用户写道:“你真可恶。”。
“哇，星期五和星期一！你们真的超越了自己！另一位用户写道:“最好再次提高票价，以确保将来不会发生这种情况。”
"现在你们应该用泥土填满隧道，因为火车从来不工作。"
“我在哪里可以给你寄我的发票超级的家？提前谢谢。"
另一位用户发布了富尔顿街车站滞留乘客的视频。
PARTS OF THE NEW YORK SUBWAY ARE DOWN (AGAIN), THIS TIME IT'S A 'SWITCH MALFUNCTION'
People enter a subway car at Times Square October 26, 2004 in New York City. The New York City subway system opened 100 years ago on October 27 when theIRTline went from City Hall to upper Manhattan. In 1904, 150,000 people paid 5 cents each to ride New York's first subway and today 4.5 million riders a day utilize the city's 842 miles of subway lines.SPENCER PLATT/GETTY IMAGES
If riders were looking to take a subway between Manhattan and Brooklyn Monday night, they were in for a complicated commute. Due to a switch malfunction, there was mass transit disruptions on a number of train lines.
The lines impacted by the malfunction include the 2, 3, 4, 5 and F trains.
"We apologize for these service disruptions tonight, but please know that we're working as hard as we can to keep service moving and get you home as quickly as possible," the Mass Trans Authority tweeted Monday.
Hello, everyone.
2/3/4/5 service between Manhattan and Brooklyn is disrupted because of malfunctioning switches at Franklin Av.
2/5 train service is suspended in Brooklyn.
3 and 4 service are also be affected.
"We are strongly suggesting that riders take the lettered lines to get to their destination," the MTA said in a Twitter reply to a stranded New Yorker.
Just last Friday the MTA also suffered a severe shutdown, impacting passengers in three boroughs.
Friday's computer failure shutdown the 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 trains and the terminal between Grand Central Station and Times Square. The New York City Transit President Andy Byford said that the backup system in place for a computer shutdown "did not appear to work."
Because of the computer failure, trains were held in place while the computer system was rebooted, taking a reported 90 minutes.
"For safety reasons, trains were required to maintain their positions at the time of the interruption, and some of those trains were in between stations," a statement read from the MTA.
All this while a large portion of the country suffers from an excessive heatwave, making subway stations hotter than usual and causing power outages across the city.
New York City Twitter users are expressing their anger towards the MTA in not-so-subtle Twitter messages.
"You are an abomination," wrote one user.
"Wow, Friday and Monday! You've truly outdone yourselves! Better raise the fares again to ensure this doesn't happen in the future," wrote another user.
