Anyone know how long the NYA Choo Choo U is? Anyone know anything about their contract? Specifically, is there an agreement you have to sign that locks you in for a period of time before you jump ship?

I think I remember hearing something along the lines of the NYAR and the LIRR having an agreement with eachother that you can't jump ship and go right over to LIRR, you have to wait 2 years....or you have to work for NYAR for 2 years before you can be hired by the LIRR or something along those lines. Some sort of buffer to prevent people from working for NYAR for only a few months and then changing flags real quick.
Is that just the LIRR or any MTA carrier? Thanks for the reply!
I think it's just between the LIRR and NYAR, to discourage people from applying to NYAR only to use it as a way to get your foot in the door of the LIRR, leaving NYAR in the dust.
