NJ Transit Lost $4M for World Cup | New York City News

from New York City News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

NJ Transit lost nearly $4 million running trains for World Cup games, despite charging $98 round-trip fares — but officials call it a win, citing smart risk management and corporate donations. Commuters faced disruptions as Penn Station sections were reserved for ticket holders, forcing others to seek alternate routes. No taxpayer money will cover the loss; instead, NJ Transit plans to offset costs through ads and real estate sales, while still moving over 370,000 fans across eight games — a feat they liken to hosting eight Super Bowls.
