Snowfighting March 14, 2017

On March 14, the snowmageddon that was supposed to immobilize New York sparked a mobilization throughout the transit system, as CTA’s geared up for a long night to ensure that platforms and stairs were clear for straphangers, Bus Operators wintered in quarters waiting for the word on which lines would be running, and work train operators and signal maintainers toiled in the yards to clear switches and de-ice tracks. All went smoothly, as our members came through with flying colors – as usual.
