It ran normally, but was MUCH less crowded. I guess people were still subway-shy, as expected.

I didn't check the website otherwise I would have LIRRed it again. What confuses me, is that if the trains are there and the tracks are clear, why cant they dispatch the trains at the normal rate? Also, in the 15 min I waited no E's past, 2 or 3 often do, so they weren't being sent out normally either. I waited 15 minutes for a PACKED and as usual slow F.

I didn't want to find out how "extensive" those delays were and didn't want to get trapped on the train for an "extensive" period of time.

The E was local, and stopped frequently due to "congestion". 6:30am, whatever trains were running were already packed. The E was local, and stopped frequently due to “congestion”.
