Andy Byford by most accounts did a great job in NYC....until Cuomo got jealous and forced him out.
This was a nice anecdote that hiring actually-knowledgeable outsiders (not private sector dilettantes) can help.
- cguess 6y agoIt's funny how here in NYC he was literally nicknamed "train daddy" and radically improved the subway on-time rates and track speeds... so yep, he had to go. Everyone loved him, NY and London are not all that different culturally. He picked up on the subtleties and worked through them, and goddamn I wish we could have him back.
