The one I like is the 1/9 trains from Midtown down to lower Manhattan. That line is nice because the trains run frequently throughout the day, and one can use the 2/3 trains for express service without having to wait a long time for a train.

I usually took a bus to the Port Authority Bus Terminal or a train to Penn Station, then I got on the 2/3 express train down to 14th street, and switched to the 1/9 local train down to South Ferry when I went to work-related meetings in a building down at Bowling Green a few years ago.

The Lexington Av. Lines 4, 5, and 6 are so crowded that I'd sure like to see the MTA build the Second Avenue subway.

Manhattan? BOO! JEER! HISS!

Seriously, I guess building a 2nd Avenue subway line is a good idea for people who live in and around Manhattan, though I can understand-being from Kings County myself-the argument against diverting yet more funds for mass transit to a borough which already has many transportation alternatives that can be utilized by its residents.

I remember how fierce the battle got when that transportation bond issue was on the ballot a few years ago.

Even though Ken Fisher campaigned vigorously against the measure-and probably had more to do with its defeat than any other elected official-he still came in dead last in the borough president's race.

Go figure!
