Calling Sunday night’s breakdown unprecedented and unacceptable, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul pledged to New York City subway users to find out what caused the chain reaction of events that led to more than 80 trains being knocked out of service for more than four hours.

Gov. Andrew Cuomo nominated Sarah Feinberg, who has served as New York City Transit’s interim president since March 2020, as the new chair of the New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority’s board.
