Overnight service on the 7 is long overdue.

I think that's part of their repair backlog. They need to start shutting down overnight service so they have time to do long-needed track maintenance.
You're right Mark. And I couldn't find the information I was looking for; what I had meant to say that there will be subway line being cancelled between 2 & 5 (in the morning, obviously) if I recall correctly. I don't think it was the L-Line either. Now when I try to google the information, it's being populated by these LTS's overnight.
Places like New York really do need transit 24/7 though, housing unaffordable, so most choose to not own a car, which give you probably close to $700 or $800 extra to spend on lodging.
