According to the NYC MTA's Tumblr blog, the transportation agency's Twitter account, which it used to update NYers about delays and other incidents on NYC's subways, has been suspended.

[Editor's Note: Reader Benjamin Kabak of Second Avenue Sagas just informed us via e-mail that it wasn't the MTA's official Twitter account that was suspended.  The account, @nyc_mta, was an "unoffical scrape" of the MTA's data.]

[Additional Update: The account may have been one of those accounts recently suspended by accident due to a system glitch, a problem which Twitter is currently attempting to fix.]
