	New York Subway
		At the outset of this era, New York County (Manhattan Island and part of the Bronx), Kings County (including the Cities of Brooklyn and Williamsburg) and Queens County were separate political entities.
		In 1898, New York, Kings and Richmond Counties, and parts of Queens and Westchester Counties and their constituent cities, towns, villages and hamlets were consolidated into the City of Greater New York.
		The three systems were unified and then operated by the City of New York through its Board of Transportation in 1940, which was succeeded in 1953 by the New York City Transit Authority, a state agency incorporated for the benefit of the city, now known to the public as MTA New York City Transit.

		NEW YORK (AP) — The constitutionality of the city's random searches of bags in the subways to deter terrorism will be challenged at a federal trial Monday by civil liberties lawyers who say the searches do nothing to accomplish that goal.
		The New York Civil Liberties Union, which brought the lawsuit on behalf of several subway riders, said in court papers filed last week that its own survey from Aug. 25 to Sept. 16 of 5,500 subway turnstile entrances found a total of 34 searches underway.
		The city maintains that the mere presence of a random search program, regardless of how it is administered, is a valuable tool to thwart terrorists who prefer to target vulnerable areas with a low police presence for attacks.

	Roll Back MTA Fare to $1.50, says Judge [Archive] - Wired New York Forum
		New York State's highest court, the Court of Appeals, decided yesterday that it would not hear the case seeking to roll back the recent fare and toll increases, after a unanimous ruling against the lawsuit in July by the Appellate Division of State Supreme Court.
		New York's base fare is now among the highest in the country, and the percentage of the subway and bus system's operations paid not by government aid but by the fare — around 60 percent — is the highest in the country.
		New York has gone through a profound shift in how transit is paid for - away from government and onto the riders - a change that was a stated, early policy of Gov. George E. Pataki and his administration, and also pursued by other politicians.
