Beware

Feces smeared on train

- BY DAN RIVOLI and STEPHEN REX BROWN

OH, CRAP, THE NO. 2 train really lived up to its name Monday.

Subway service stunk more than usual during the morning commute because two cars were covered in feces.

At least five commuters tweeted that service was suspended around 9:30 a.m. due to the disgusting fecal fiasco. The MTA later confirmed their account.

One tweeting commuter wrote that a conductor made a nauseating announceme­nt after the train pulled into the bowels of the Borough Hall station in Brooklyn.

“We are evacuating the train as it’s been reported two train cars contain feces,” Sara Cavolo shared.

“Ladies and gentleman this train is going out of service . . . it’s covered in feces. We apologize for the inconvenie­nce,” another commuter, Marcy Schwerin, tweeted.

The MTA did not provide any details regarding the scatologic­al subway service. But the agency shared commuters’ revulsion.

“We are completely disgusted and we have no idea why anyone would do this to their fellow New Yorkers,” MTA spokesman Jon Weinstein said in a statement. “The cars were immediatel­y removed from service and cleaned.”
