  • Staten Island Railway, a Unit of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, for the Period January 1, 2014 to September 12, 2017
    April 12, 2018 Mr. Joseph Lhota Chairman Metropolitan Transportation Authority 2 Broadway New York, NY 10004 Re: Selected Safety and Security Equipment at Train Stations Report 2017-S-84 Dear Mr. Lhota: Pursuant to the State Comptroller’s authority as set forth in Article X, Section 5 of the State Constitution and Section 2803 of the Public Authorities Law, we examined selected safety and security equipment at train stations at the Staten Island Railway, a unit of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority, for the period January 1, 2014 to September 12, 2017. The objective of our audit was to determine whether the Staten Island Railway has taken appropriate action to ensure that equipment, such as cameras and Customer Assistance Intercoms, are working, tested, maintained, and monitored. Background Staten Island Railway (SIR) is a subsidiary of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA). Administratively, SIR is a separate operating unit, reporting to New York City Transit’s (Transit) Department of Subways. SIR operates a single rapid transit line that runs the length of Staten Island (about 14 miles) from St. George Terminal to the southern terminal at Tottenville. SIR’s management oversees capital projects at its 21 train stations, maintains the stations’ structural components, and ensures that security equipment installed at the stations is working, monitored, and tested. As of June 8, 2017, SIR had 199 Closed Circuit Television (CCTV) cameras, 42 stand-alone cameras, and 43 Customer Assistance Intercoms (CAI) – intended for customer use in emergencies – at an estimated cost of approximately $21 million for the new system, excluding the stand-alone cameras.

  • Memorandum T ^ ^ ^ L-8 9-63 TO
    UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT R^f-R°AD RETIREMENT BOARD .. r i j u n / iyoy Memorandum T ^ ^ ^ L-8 9-63 TO . Director of Compensation and Certification from : Deputy General Counsel SUBJECT: Staten Island Rapid Transit Operating Authority Employer Status This is to notify you that pursuant to a request by Mr. Albert C. Cosenza, Vice President and General Counsel of the Staten Island Rapid Transit Operating Authority (SIRTOA), I have determined that SIRTOA ceased to be an employer under the Railroad Retirement Act (RRA) and Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act (RUIA) effective September 21, 1987. SIRTOA has previously been ruled to be an employer under the Acts with service creditable from July 1, 1971. See Legal Opinion L-71-177. The evidence in file shows that in 1970 the City of New York purchased from the Staten Island Rapid Transit Railway Company (Railway Company) , a subsidiary of the Baltimore St Ohio Railroad, a 14.5 mile length of track on Staten Island, New York, stretching from St. George to Tottenville. The City intended to conduct commuter rail service over the line. The Railway Company retained another 16.7 miles of track on Staten Island, and obtained from the City freight service trackage rights over the St. George - Tottenville line. Freight service was estimated at the time to be 7,000 cars annually. The City agreed to maintain the line for the joint use of commuter and freight service. The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) of New York City formed SIRTOA as an instrumentality to operate the line. SIRTOA requested a determination as to its status as an employer under the RRA and RUIA.

Fox Table of Contents Section I - Introduction Section II - Program by Activity Section III - NJDOT Project/Program Descriptions Section IV - NJ TRANSIT Project/Program Descriptions Section V – Glossary Section I INTRODUCTION NJDOT/NJ TRANSIT Capital Investment Strategy for FY03-FY07 Introduction The Transportation Capital Program for Fiscal Year 2003 describes all the capital investments planned by the New Jersey Department of Transportation and NJ TRANSIT for the fiscal year beginning on July 1, 2002. A multi-year program, as required under federal law, is also under development. Both of these programs are the products of extensive, ongoing participation by the state’s three metropolitan planning organizations (MPOs) and a wide variety of stakeholders. Both programs are driven by New Jersey’s transportation goals and objectives, as laid out in this “capital investment strategy” report. “Capital investment strategy” is the term used in New Jersey for a method of linking transportation investments with goals, objectives, and performance measures. New Jersey is a national leader in the development of this approach, which ensures that scarce financial resources are used as efficiently as possible to address our most important needs. This report provides an overview of NJDOT’s and NJ TRANSIT’s capital programs and concludes with a summary of the revenues which are planned to be used to finance these programs.

  • First Served the Rahway Valley Railroad
    Metropolitan Division TCA Production Sample Shown Order NOW – First Come – First Served The Rahway Valley Railroad (RVRR) was a short-line railroad in the Northeastern United States which connected the Lehigh Valley Railroad in Roselle Park and the Central Railroad of New Jersey in Cranford and with the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western in Summit. Operating over a span of 95 years (1897–1992) in Union County, New Jersey, in its prime it was one of the most successful short-line railroads in U.S. history, turning a profit during the Great Depression. During its lifetime, the RVRR was instrumental in the development of Kenilworth (site of its headquarters) as well as Union Township, Springfield and other towns along its route. The RV 'Superman inspired' logo was adopted in the early 1980's when Bernie Cahill, President of the RV, leased a large group of new boxcars from ITEL Rail Corp. As an interesting footnote, Walter M. Matuch of RMT, then a college student, worked on the RV as a brakeman in the late 1960s. The car, made by RMT, features a stamped metal frame, metal brake wheel and die-cast trucks.
