    Wait, the G is cut to Court Square because of electrical work in Lower Manhattan?

    An MTA press release from the future:

    “From 8:30 a.m. Jan 1st to 11pm December 31st, there will be no G train service. Why? Because we feel like it. What’re you going to do, give us a poor grade on the next Rider Report Card?”
