That Bedford-Union Square shuttle was a cruel joke when I lived on the L. Walk, ride a bike, share a taxi, take the J, take the G to something else, go to Broadway Junction. Do anything but cram into those hot stations with too many other people who can’t all fit into the single train that can’t handle the traffic.
