R62A 1991 Posted January 26, 2009 Share #6 Posted January 26, 2009 Definitely the , schedule shows average daytime length of about 1 hour and 11 minutes, but 31 miles is the absolute longest any single train travels by far. BUT, the is being shown to take an average of an hour and a half travelling it's distance, mainly because it's local for longer. Same with the actually, about an hour and a half from about the middle of the Bronx to the bottom of Brooklyn. All times based on the MTA.info schedules. Depending on the time of day, usually these rides take much longer end-to-end... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming its the , right? In terms of distance, it's the A train... This is fact. In terms of time, it just might be the 2 train... That is my opinion.
