In reply to: Crazy! So what's the hold up. Why can't they run at full capacity? posted by ladyday
There are 4 tunnels that go into Penn Station from Long Island. Only 2 are operational right now. So service is cut in half. But, then you have additional riders because subways have been screwed up because of power issues and flooding. So, there are more passengers trying to get on fewer trains. Plus, there's a whole entire line that is not running because the south shore (think Long Beach) was so badly hit and the rails/stations are damaged.

It's a mess.
