The fire erupted at approximately 4 a.m. on a train at the 181st Street station in Washington Heights.
Video posted to Citizen App showed a small fire on a seat inside a train stopped at the station.
An MTA worker then attempted to put the fire out and threw the flaming material onto the floor then stomping on it while reporting the incident on his radio.
The fire prompted delays on Southbound A trains, according to the MTA.
"Southbound A trains are running with delays after we investigated a report of someone being disruptive on a train at 181 St.," the MTA tweeted.
