No Manhattan-Bound Q or B Running Due to Track Fire at Atlantic Avenue
There are no Manhattan-bound Q and B trains stopping in our neighborhood due to a track fire at Atlantic Avenue, said the MTA employee stationed at Newkirk Plaza. Q trains are running on the N line from Stillwell Avenue.

Update: The MTA website has removed its notification, leading us to believe trains are running once more as of 10:45 a.m. If you do take the Q or B train towards Manhattan, let us know how the trip goes.
