Ok, so it's in New York, but is that more or less difficult than anywhere in the UK?

The full story of Andy Byford, the man in charge of NY Transit, on the BBC here

Earlier in the day, water damage had caused a signal failure, delaying trains from rush hour that morning until early afternoon.

Walking up and down the platform, Byford tried to apologise in person to harried commuters while a recording of him formally apologising played on a loop on the station's loudspeaker.
