I don't believe it's cost from reading the Tweets and replies.
MTA: "For the MTA, Twitter is no longer reliable for providing the consistent updates riders expect."
NYCTSubway: "Our access to publish service alerts was suspended last week and again this week. ^JLZ" and "Good evening, Our access to publish service alerts was suspended last week and again this week. We'd like to continue providing you with the most current real-time information but we can’t do it consistently on an unreliable platform. ^GES"
It sounds like Twitter is cutting off access somehow. I don't know if this is API access, or what. But if there are thousands of people checking the Twitter feed for updates, and they're unable to post updates, that seems like an issue of reliability. Not necessarily that Twitter's servers are going down or delaying delivery.
