As noted in a previous post, this week saw the first two MTA worker deaths in since 2007.  The Times ran an interesting piece on the dead-man’s switch that prevented the G train from going out of control when its motorman suffered a heart attack.

Also, news of a revised Capital Project plan, one that is two billion dollars lighter, is making the rounds.  Governor Paterson had vetoed the previous plan because of budget shortfalls.

We are hosting Tom Sibley, the father of subwaydouchery.com, and the subject of todays nyctracks.com video, on our podcast tomorrow.  Be sure to check out the interview at 3:00PM.
