Actually, it was to provide for more accountability and autonomy for each line. How it was supposed to work was that the Line Supt. would not have to go up the chain of command to the ACTO and then back down through the adjacent division to get something done. He could call Supt. to Supt. to station or track or signal or car equipment. On some lines it worked well while on some lines they promoted the same types who were promoted under the system that you are talking about - fraught with nepotism and incompetence. In fact during your time I recall that one RTO mucky-muck out in Queens promoted his own no-nothing daughter. She was ultimately knocked back but as soon as he retired, she was up there again - and is still fucking things up. |
