NJ Transit Executive Director Jim Weinstein to Step Down

The Star Ledger is reporting that Jim Weinstein is stepping down from his position as Executive Director of NJ Transit in March.  Weinstein has taken heat for leaving rail equipment in low lying areas that led to extensive damage during Hurricane Sandy.  More recently, the agency has been criticized for massive overcrowding of trains during the Super Bowl.
