In the wee hours of March 27th, a northbound 2 train at 110-Central Park North on the IRT Lenox line caught fire. Definitely suspicious circumstances, and the damage is absolutely unreal. Several passenger and firefighter injuries, and unfortunately the train operator perished as a result of trying to evacuate his train.
May Garret Goble rest in peace.

As of midnight on 3/28/20: 1 trains were still bypassing 86th Street and 96th Street due to related investigations. (Garbage can fires before the incident at 110). There is obviously no Lenox service, and 2's are running via the east side.
I would be willing to bet money that 110 will be bypassed for quite some time once service on the Lenox line is restored, that's definitely not going to be a quick fix.
