NEW YORK (AP) — Uber drivers in New York City called Monday for a strike to protest the company's decision to cut fares by 15 percent, as drivers rallied at the ride-sharing app's New York headquarters.
Several hundred attended the protest, but it's not clear how many would heed the call for a shutdown. The company has roughly 30,000 registered vehicles in New York City.
BOSTON – At least one new commuter-rail locomotive will be returned to the engine manufacturer "because of significant issues," Frank DePaola, the general manager of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority, told T overseers Monday.
Overall, DePaola said the new train engines are outperforming the older locomotives in the system. "They are much more reliable than the legacy fleet," DePaola told the agency's Fiscal and Management Control Board. He said the new engines travel on average more than twice as far as the older models before breaking down.
