Interesting that NJT is for the most part not involved with the PSCC operations...MACTRAXX
I've heard the same - 6 month tours in LIRR/Amtrak management overseeing the operation.

Does anyone know exactly what the dates for each are? It might enable us to track NYP delays.

In ordinary business terms would that system not amount to a turnover rate of 200%?
