Greenwich Commuters' Trains Would Have Cameras Monitoring Tracks, Wayside Areas, Cabs

Metro-North Railroad and Long Island Rail Road today won approval from a committee of the Metropolitan Transportation Authority Board to award contracts totaling $34.6 million for the purchase of inward- and outward-facing cameras in the cabs of their rail fleets. The outward-facing cameras will be used to record track and wayside activities, and the inward-facing cameras will be used to record the engineer's control area while the train is in operation.
