New Flagging Quarters Opens at Chambers St.

SEPTEMBER 26—Conductor and Tower Chair Chris Drummond (center) joined General Superintendent Archer and Superintendent Landis to celebrate the reopening of the newly renovated flagging quarters at Chambers Street in lower Manhattan. It is the largest flagging facility in Manhattan and shares some space with Maintenance of Way personnel.

"I thanked Superintendent Archer and everyone involved in the renovation," Drummond said. "I told them it was great and thanked them on behalf of our Flaggers. There are new TVs, showers, and plenty of lockers for both men and women. There's an office for supervision and for TSS as well."

Drummond said that the renovation was five years in the making, and that he hopes these renovations continue. "We finally have a facility that meets our standards," he said.
