Hoffer Representing MTA Capital Construction Company: Janno Lieber, Evan Eisland, David Canon and Peter Kohner Representing MTA Police: Chief Owen Monahan Long Island Committee Chair Mitchell H. Pally called the meeting of the Long Island Rail Road Committee (“LIC”) to order. PUBLIC COMMENTS Mark D. Hoffer, LIRR Vice President - General Counsel & Secretary reviewed the emergency safety procedures and introduced the three public speakers, requesting them to limit their comments to two minutes, and to address matters on the agenda for the meeting. Jason Pineiro spoke about WiFi accessibility on all trains and stations, enforcement of fare payments prior to boarding trains, moving an Air Train ticket machine at Penn Station to Atlantic Terminal, and the repair of the East New York station in Brooklyn. He said LIRR’s ridership has decreased and requested that President Eng and Executive Vice President Elisa Picca take a look at ________________________________________________________________________________ Master Page # 5 of 337 - Joint Metro-North and Long Island Committees Meeting 2/25/2019 riders not paying fares. He suggested that conductors enforce the rules and that riders should have their fares ready prior to boarding. Murray Bodin referred to comments made by Board Members Neal Zuckerman and Charles G. Moerdler at the Metro-North Railroad Committee (“MNR Committee”) meeting regarding culture change. He recommended that MNR Committee Chair Susan G. Metzger be replaced because she was prepared to accept married pair cars, and he asked Chair Pally for his views on red lights and traffic lights at LIRR grade crossings, and doing things differently. Omar Vera spoke about enhanced WiFi and additional space for luggage on all trains; reiterated that there should be Air Train ticket machines at Atlantic Terminal; and commended the East Side Access (“ESA”) project. Additional details of the comments made by the public speakers are contained in the video recording of the meeting produced by the MTA and maintained in the MTA records. APPROVAL OF MINUTES AND 2018 WORK PLAN CHANGES Upon motion duly made and seconded, the Committee approved the minutes of the December 20, 2018 LIC meeting. There were no reported changes to the 2019 Work Plan. MTA LONG ISLAND RAIL ROAD PRESIDENT’S REPORT President Eng thanked his staff and commended all LIRR field personnel who braved the harsh winter elements this past weekend. With the support of our Labor partners, LIRR was able to promptly respond to any weather-related incidents allowing us to provide service and to keep the LIRR running safely. President Eng stated that we know that we can’t control Mother Nature, but we can be better prepared, which is what we did with all the winter preparation work under LIRR Forward. By protecting switches, installing third rail heaters, and working with partners like Public Service Electric & Gas (“PSEG”) to replace utility poles proactively, we were able to better prepare ourselves for storm events like this past weekend’s. President Eng stated that we know we need to stay focused on making critical upgrades to our infrastructure, allowing us to incrementally improve service. He also stated that he committed on Day One that he would bring a new sense of urgency to the work we do. Customers told us that they wanted better real-time information, so they can make informed decisions. He added that he was excited to announce that at the end of the month, LIRR will be launching a beta version of a new real-time train information tool. This tool will allow customers to select their stations and their trains; to see where their trains are and their consist size; and to learn about planned work or incidents that may affect their trips. President Eng thanked the MTA Information Technology Department, LIRR’s Maintenance of Equipment (“MofE”) Department and the Public Information Office in the LIRR Market Development & Public Affairs Department for their hard work in getting this done, with ________________________________________________________________________________ Master Page # 6 of 337 - Joint Metro-North and Long Island Committees Meeting 2/25/2019 a special thank you to Will Fisher, LIRR’s Chief Innovation Officer, for his dedication and leadership. President Eng stated that we look forward to hearing customer and employee feedback concerning this tool, so we can continue to improve it. The goal is to make this our primary source of customer information; consolidate the number of platforms LIRR currently uses; and improve the accuracy and consistency of customer information. President Eng stated that in other good news, the railroad hit a modern-day record with over 89.8 million rides in 2018. He thanked all the men and women at LIRR for working around the clock, not only meeting deadlines but exceeding them, as we continue to upgrade and expand our system for today’s riders and to meet the needs of the future. There is an unprecedented amount of work happening throughout the system. Last month, LIRR achieved 93.48% On Time Performance (“OTP”). This is a direct result of managing through low adhesion season to better ensure that we minimized impacts. Last year’s impacts were felt into February. President Eng stated that with our great partners at MTA Capital Construction, we completed over 10 stations, with upgrades to platforms and station houses. This reflects another commitment to our customers who use these stations and to their communities which take pride in their local train stations. LIRR’s new Double Track is proving successful, improving operations and flexibility during planned work and unplanned incidents. Third Track grade crossing eliminations and other system improvements are already underway. Buckram and Post Avenue bridges were elevated. Since then, no bridge strikes have occurred at these locations, making it safer for our customers and employees and simultaneously making it better for the community that the local road supports. President Eng stated that we expect similar results with the replacement and elevation of the Nassau Boulevard, South Tyson, Cherry Lane, Acabonack, and North Main Street bridges, which experienced over 60 strikes in the past 8 years. Between the grade crossing eliminations and the bridge work along the Main Line, we are continuing to improve reliability of service.

  • Section 4 ELECTRIC ROLLING STOCK EQUIPMENT POWER
    Section 4 ELECTRIC ROLLING STOCK EQUIPMENT POWER 4.1 EQUIPMENT DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION REQUIREMENTS The rolling stock equipment to be selected must be designed and built in full accordance with the rules and regulations issued by the Federal Railroad Administration (FRA) and the Recommendations issued by the American Public Transportation Association (APTA). On May 12, 1999, FRA issued comprehensive rules addressing rail vehicle design and construction in accordance with operating speeds. Tier I of the rules apply to "...railroad passengerequipment operating at speedsnot exceeding 125 mph..." "Unless otherwise specified, these requirements only apply to passenger equipment ordered on or after September 8, 2000 or placed in service for the first time on or after September 9, 2002. The rule also states that "The structural standards of this subpart. do not apply to passengerequipment if used exclusively on a rail line: (i) With no public highway-rail grade crossings; (ii) On which no freight operations occur at any time; (iii) On which only passengerequipment of compatible design is utilized; (iv) On which trains operate at speedsnot exceeding 79 mph. The rule provides for alternative compliance by demonstrating "...at least an equivalent of safety in such environment with respect to the protection of its occupants from serious injury in the case of a derailment or collision." Given the fact that JPB's equipment: a) operates, or may operate in the future, on the same lines as other freight and passengertrains; and b) that it will likely operate at speeds higher than 79 mph in the future, it is assumed that the electrically powered rolling stock will be required to meet the rules and regulations as written, with no waivers or alternative solutions.

  • Commuter Rail System On-Time Performance Report
    COMMUTER RAIL SYSTEM ON-TIME PERFORMANCE REPORT October 2015 Division of Strategic Capital Planning December 2015 COMMUTER RAIL ON-TIME PERFORMANCE October 2015 This report presents an analysis of the October 2015 train delays as reported for Metra's eleven commuter rail lines. On-time is defined, for this analysis, as those regularly scheduled trains arriving at their last station stop less than six minutes behind schedule. Trains that are six minutes or more behind schedule, including annulled trains (trains that do not complete their scheduled runs), are regarded as late. “Extra” trains (trains added to handle special events but not shown in the regularly published timetables) are excluded from on-time performance calculations unless shown in special-event schedules that include all intermediate station stop times and are distributed publicly via Metra's website or on paper flyers. Cancelled (not annulled) trains and non-revenue trains are also excluded from on-time performance calculations. On-Time Performance Tables Table 1 presents the number of train delays by rail line and service period. During October 2015, Metra operated 17,717 scheduled trains, including scheduled “extras”, if any. 528 of these trains were delayed (late or annulled), representing an on-time performance rate of 97.0%. Table 2 lists on-time percentages by line for each month and year since 2010. Table 3 lists each train that was on time for less than 85% of its weekday runs in October 2015, in order of line, train, and dates delayed. The codes in the 'Delay Code' column of Table 3 are defined in Table 4 and shown sorted by delay-cause category and carrier designation in Table 5.
