5X Train FAQ
Route, Stops & Service PatternWhat is the route of the 5X Train?
Peak-direction express service in the Bronx and Manhattan. Officially labeled as the Lexington Avenue Express.
Is the 5X line operating right now, and how many 5X trains are running?
The 5X line reads as No Service across most stations in our live snapshot—use Status & Alerts or the map for the next update. Service is not reliable enough in our snapshot to headline an active-train count—treat the line as stressed or partially unusable until conditions improve; use Status & Alerts below or AP Transit.
Is the 5X train running well right now?
Right now our algorithm rates this line as No Service based on recent wait times and live reliability. There are no active alerts for this route in our feed right now.
When does the 5X service change?
Service patterns often change during late nights (11 PM – 5 AM) and weekends for planned work. Always check active alerts.
How much does an NYC Subway ride on the 5X train cost (OMNY, Apple Pay, card)?
A standard one-way NYC Subway fare—including the 5X train—is $3.00 when you tap OMNY at the turnstile (official MTA base fare as of June 2026). You can pay with a contactless credit or debit card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, or a physical or digital OMNY card. Free in-system transfers and time-limited transfers to other MTA subway lines and local buses follow MTA rules; for discounts, commuter benefits, and the latest fare rules, open AP Transit on our homepage.
Which stations on the 5X line have accessibility (ADA)?

How often does the 5X train come, and what is the maximum wait?

Which stations may have spacing issues for the next 5X train (ETA on the arriving train)?
No stops on this line currently show a next-5X ETA score under 60 for the arriving train in our snapshot. This view updates automatically; if headways worsen, check Status & Alerts below or AP Transit.
