As part of its 40th anniversary celebration of NJ TRANSIT Rail Operations, NJ TRANSIT honored the “Forty Year Club,” which consists of 28 employees who have been with the railroad or its corporate predecessors since the initiation of Rail Operations service in 1983.
At the latest Board of Directors meeting, a proclamation was presented to the group by NJDOT Commissioner and NJ TRANSIT Board Chair Diane Gutierrez-Scaccetti, NJ TRANSIT President & CEO Kevin S. Corbett, and Sr. Vice President and General Manager of Rail Operations James A. Sincaglia, according to the agency's news release.
“Congratulations to these longtime dedicated NJ TRANSIT employees who are essential to the successful operation of our rail service,” said New Jersey Department of Transportation Commissioner and NJ TRANSIT Board Chair Diane Gutierrez-Scaccetti. “We applaud their decades of public service to the people of New Jersey.”
“Today, we recognize employees who have been instrumental to the success of NJ TRANSIT’s rail operations over the past 40 years,” said Corbett. “Their long-term commitment and dedication has been a cornerstone of our work to provide safe and reliable rail service to our customers.”
