@abcnews: Some 350,000 New Jersey commuters could soon find themselves scrambling for other ways to get to work if contract disagreements between New Jersey Transit and its engineers’ union aren't resolved, according to transit officials. The Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers and Trainmen has threatened to strike as early as Friday, May 16, unless NJ Transit and the union are able to agree on new contract terms and conditions for the workers who drive the trains. If no deal is reached, all New Jersey Transit commuter trains — and the MTA Metro-North West of Hudson service — will stop running.
Pathetic. Nj transit just pay the engineers man. I’m a mechanic. I can’t work from home. What about all of us that can’t work from home. Forced to drive now which is bullshit when I pay over 500 for a month pass! Total BS

They demand better wages when they don't provide good service. They steal money from many people. They charge them directly. And they don't give the money to the railroad companies. In New York, many ticket machines also steal money. Those who only have money for a ticket or a ride can't get their money back from the machines. Those who demand better wages should provide better service to passengers. People are going through a lot of problems.

They have been raising the prices for ALL COMMUTERS for YEARS now and they haven’t fixed anything NOR paid their engineers proportionally. Like wtf did the money go? PAY YOUR WORKERS AND STOP SHIPHONING YOUR COMMUTERS

Remember, Gov Murphy & Democrats HATE NJ commuters & taxpayers! Dems destroyed our interstates, our airport and have allowed NYC congestion pricing to impact NJ commuters. Solution - Vote Republican in November!
