Dangerous New Castle Metro-North crossing to get new $107M overpass

A dangerous Metro-North Railroad crossing along the Saw Mill River Parkway in New Castle will be replaced with a $107 million overpass. The Roaring Brook Road crossing is among 91 projects across 37 states that will split $1.24 billion in funding earmarked for rail crossing safety upgrades, the Federal Railroad Administration announced Friday, Oct. 30. It’s the largest of the grants, surpassing the $90 million California received to eliminate a crossing in Burlingame. The New York State Department of Transportation will pick up 20% of the cost to design and build the overpass. The Harlem Line crossing has been the scene of dozens of accidents. Some 9,000 vehicles and over 100 passenger trains pass through every day. What to know about Roaring Brook Road crossing funds “Protecting the traveling public and enhancing the backbone of our nation’s transportation system — our rail network — is all part of the Trump administration's commitment to move people and products better than ever,” said U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean P. Duffy. New York’s U.S. senators, Democrats Charles Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand, have advocated for the changes. Schumer appeared in Garrison four years ago to highlight the need for rail crossing eliminations in New Castle

Subway Safety for Women in NYC

Subway safety has continued to be of concern for women across NYC since the first underground rapid transit network opened in 1904. Over 100 years later, women are concerned for their safety as they board subway train. Women’s uneasiness permeates regardless of whether the train is packed or empty, if it is day or night, or if one is alone or with a group of people. Many women consciously keep their guard up throughout their commute, scanning the lengths of the train car they are in, or even tilting their heads to peer through the neighboring train car windows.

New Center Lane on Flatbush Avenue Offers Shelter. Dollar Vans Still Offer Speed.

At a new center-running bus stop on Flatbush Avenue, between Atlantic and Fourth Avenues, riders face a choice: wait for the B41 and B67 buses, or hail a passing dollar van. Flatbush is the first of five rapid-bus corridors projected for completion by 2030, Mayor Zohran Mamdani has said. The project is part of the $882 million city-state initiative “Next Stop: Fast Buses, Better Service.” About 69,000 riders on six MTA bus routes use the northern stretch of Flatbush Avenue each day, where buses move as slowly as 4 mph, according to an April 2026 briefing from the New York City Department of Transportation (NYC DOT). The DOT argues that physically separating buses from private vehicles, via a bus-only center lane, is the best way to protect pedestrians and improve overall efficiency.

In 1930, these iconic subway cars were built to transport New Yorkers across the five boroughs; 96 years later, New Yorkers can hop aboard the beloved vintage trains and head on a magically nostalgic journey through NYC

Halloween is officially in the rearview mirror , which means our favorite city is now ready to shift into full festive mode! And New York has its own time-honored December magic: rolling back the clock nearly a century aboard the city’s beloved vintage subway cars. Whether you want to channel your inner 1930s commuter or take in the subway’s mid-century aesthetic, here is everything you need to know about stepping aboard NYC’s most iconic tracks this season. The Ultimate NYC Winter Tradition: Holiday Nostalgia Rides Every December , the New York Transit Museum pulls its legendary vintage fleet out of the yard and places it right back onto regular subway tracks for its annual Holiday Nostalgia Rides. Stepping into these carriages is a cinematic experience: Vintage interiors: Rattan woven seats, ceiling ceiling fans, incandescent light bulbs, and genuine leather hanging straps. Period adverts: Authentic, retro posters lining the walls advertising long-forgotten department stores, shoe polishes, and 1930s Broadway shows. Period-dress straphangers: Riders often lean into the charm, dressing up in sharp fedoras, cloche hats, zoot suits, and flapper coats, accompanied by impromptu swing dancing on the platform. Best of all, these holiday rides are famously accessible—operating at normal subway fares
