guslThis is a question I've asked myself for a long time.
Q: How much time go you save by taking the (2) or (3) express between 14th St and 96th St, compared with taking the (1)?
A: 6 minutes. The (1) was 1 minute behind the (2). I took the (2) at 12:31am, saw that we didn't pass any trains, arrived at 96th St at 12:44am. Waited until 12:51am for the (1). So it's 13 minutes vs 19 minutes for that stretch.
