I can buy the train ref.
"G" train riders STILL wish for better days:
"Of course fare increases and service cutbacks will affect every person who depends on mass transit. However, G train riders have already experienced a de facto fare hike in the form of drastic service cuts. Most of us are paying full fare for shortened, more crowded subway cars and unacceptable waiting intervals (10+ minutes during rush hour, simply inconceivable anywhere else in the system), and have lost our direct connection to the R train at Queens Plaza during the week -- all very difficult losses. To pay more for this level of substandard service -- and face additional planned service cutbacks -- adds insult to injury for G riders.
Service cutbacks and a fare increase will be hard on everyone who uses mass transit, but G riders have already been severely affected and therefore will be proportionately even more impacted if these proposed changes are realized. It's critical that G riders attend the MTA's public hearings and speak up! Please attend one of the following hearings; we especially need the MTA to hear from Brooklyn and Queens G train commuters!"
