With 22 train yards and 19 bus depots, it would be extremely difficult to pinpoint exactly which services will be up and running first.

We are deeply disappointed in the arbitrator's ruling on New York City Transit's expansion of one-person train operation to the L line on nights and weekends. Although the union argued that the program was unsafe, the arbitrator based the decision on an overly technical reading of a 1994 contract, not safety. We will be reviewing our options over the next few days.

We're in the same boat as most other services. It's just extremely difficult now to get qualified personnel.

We obviously disagree with the arbitrator's decision.

We're still assessing our options, what we're going to do and when we're going to do it. As of now, there's no date for restoring the conductors. An appeal is being considered.

It is not easy to do something good, but it is extremely difficult to do something bad.
