As a Brooklyn-bound C train pulled into the 59th Street-Columbus Circle station during the evening rush earlier this month, subway riders heard one version of an announcement that is now being repeated at many stops along the line.
But some train crew members and leaders of the largest union for transit workers say the announcements have been less well received by the conductors who are supposed to recite them over train speakers whenever police officers alert them in advance to their presence.
“It may help a little bit as far as making someone on the train think twice if they’re planning to do something bad,” said Elena Rodriguez, who was waiting for a northbound C train at the 50th Street stop in Manhattan. “It did make me feel a little comfortable, but at the same time, you just never know.”
But some union officials who represent train operators and conductors say they have heard grumbling from train crew members that the announcements about police can increase dwell time — the amount of time trains spend in a station while riders load and unload — though MTA officials said there is no indication that service has slipped as a result of the public safety campaign.
