Marjorie Anders Quotes

The M-7 travels more than 700,000 miles without a breakdown, although the contract specified only 100,000 miles between breakdowns. The M-7 put Metro-North on track for a record on-time performance for 2005 of more than 97 percent.»

That affected all the lines because of slower boarding and congestions. We had trains stacked.»
