Dallastown, Pa.’s Trans/Air Manufacturing Corp. announce personnel changes in the warranty department, including the retirement of Jeff Kochenour.
Craig Smith will be promoted to warranty manager. Smith has worn many hats during his 30-plus years at Trans/Air. With experience in production, installation, field service, and technical assistance, Smith’s transition into the position of warranty manager is a “perfect fit,” according to the company.

Jennifer Wagner will continue in her current position of warranty administrator. With 13 years of experience at Trans/Air and nine years in warranty, Wagner will work with Smith to continue a high level of warranty service for customers.
Trans/Air manufactures a full line of climate control systems. Units, parts, service, warranty, and new or aftermarket installations are available through factory-owned operations or a network of distributors throughout North America.
The region’s fixed-route system finished out the year with a total of 373.5 million rides. Adding 12.3 million rides over 2024 represents an increase that is equal to the annual transit ridership of Kansas City.
The service is a flexible, reservation-based transit service designed to close the first- and last-mile gaps and connect riders to employment for just $5 per day.
The upgraded system, which went live earlier this month, supports METRO’s METRONow vision to enhance the customer experience, improve service reliability, and strengthen long-term regional mobility.
The agreement provides competitive wages and reflects strong labor-management collaboration, positive working relationships, and a shared commitment to building a world-class transit system for the community, said RTA CEO Lona Edwards Hankins.
The priorities are outlined in the 2026 Board and CEO Initiatives and Action Plan, which serves as a roadmap to guide the agency’s work throughout the year and ensure continued progress and accountability on voter-approved transportation investments and essential mobility services.
