Train delays are a sensitive subject in New York of late, what with all the delays, cancellations and hellish commutes resulting from a pair of derailments at Penn Station over the past two weeks. This weekend, another run of subway service suspensions and reroutes will make navigating Gotham slightly more complicated, and will presumably leave thousands of weary commuters confused. 

It's our goal to keep you from being one of those perplexed passengers, so we've rounded up the key service changes coming this weekend. If you plan on leaving your neighborhood this weekend, keep reading. 

2 train service will be suspended between Manhattan and Brooklyn from 11:45pm Friday through 5am Monday. Service on the 3 will also be cut off between the boroughs, with no service between 14th Street and New Lots Avenue during the same time frame.

4 trains will not be running in either direction between Crown Heights-Utica Avenue and New Lots from 11:30pm Friday through 6:30am Sunday, and from11:45pm Sunday through 5am Monday.
