These are PRECISE. It took me a while to find a Z train since they only appear in the early morning rush hour routes. The A is the goat though unless you're specifically trying to get to Lefferts, Rockaway, or Ozone Park. I feel like it's the fastest express train with the way it flies through the stations and stops (ESPECIALLY when it hits Norstrand Ave for some reason 😭)
