Commuters pack tightly onto the 6 train at 59th street in New York on Wednesday, June 30, 2010. A stalled train on the express line between the Brooklyn Bridge and 14th St. caused delays and overcrowding during peak usage times Wednesday evening.

Only "mildly" frustrating? You must be a very patient man indeed, Mr. Woods.
Makes rush hour in Chicago look like chump change.
NMTA, NMTA, lets ride the NMTA.
I love riding MTA when in NYC. I like listening to the recorded female voice that calls out the upcoming stops in a sexy voice, the way she says "Burrough Hall" is seductive, and the guy who says "Stand Clear of the Closing Doors" is iconic.
Good shot Jonathon; better late getting home than getting to work.
How to avoid hot summer subway nightmare? Bike!
New yorkers today don't realize how good they have it . the old MTA back in the 60's and 70's was dirty with frequent delays.. back then comuters on the LIRR would spend a good part of their day just getting back and forth to work.
