Collection material in English
On June 17, 1994, the conductors and maintenance workers of the Long Island Railroad
(LIRR) went on strike, after two and a half years without a contract. The strike was
led by the United Transportation Union (UTU) after negotiations concerning pay rates
and work rules between the UTU and the Metropolitan Tranportation Authority (MTA), the
LIRR's parent company, broke down. The strike lasted for two days until New York Governor
Mario M. Cuomo and his aides stepped in to impose a contract settlement on the LIRR
management, ending the contract dispute.
