B train service resumed with delays in both directions Tuesday afternoon, hours after it was suspended due to a switch problem at the 135th Street station in Manhattan, the MTA said.
The issue temporarily led to delays along the A, C and D train lines as well, but regular service had resumed as of mid-afternoon.
